  我的朋友们、同志们和南非同胞们: 我以和平、民主和全人类自由的名义,向你们大家致意。今天我站在你们面前,不是作为一名预言家,而是作为人民的谦卑公仆。你们不懈的奋斗和英勇的牺牲才使我今天有可能站在这里,因此,我要把余生献给你们。在我获释的今天,我要向千百万同胞,向世界各地为我的获释作出过不懈努力的人们,致以真诚的、最热烈的感谢。
 
  背景资料
  1990年2月11日,被监禁27年之后,曼德拉被无条件释放。他面带微笑,以矫健的步伐和胜利者的姿态迈出了监狱的大门,在开普敦向迎接他出狱的数万名南非人民表达了激情澎湃的演讲。从曼德拉铿锵有力的声音中,我们能感受到这位72岁老战士“老骥伏枥,志在千里”的雄心。
  I have fought against white domination, and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony with equal opportunities. It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to see realized. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.
  我反对白人统治,也反对黑人统治。我珍视民主和自由社会的理想,在这个社会中,人人和睦相处,机会均等。我希望为这个理想而生,并希望能实现这个理想。但是如果需要,为理想我愿献出生命。
