to 不定詞

And I want to say congratulations to every single one of you.

That graduated today. I was listing to your names.

今天畢業了。我是列到你們的名字。

I&rsquo;ve been back there waiting for you to finish so I could start up.

我&rsquo;一直在後面等你完成，這樣我就可以開始了。

Anyway, I know this is a big big day for you.

總之，我知道今天對你來說是個大日子。

And I never dreamed, never ever ever dreamed that I would be a commencement speaker.

而我從來沒有想過，從來沒有想過自己會成為一名畢業典禮的演講者。

現在唱，是的，我可以做到這一點。

No problem, but making speeches I&rsquo;m a little nervous.

沒問題，但做演講我&rsquo;有點緊張。

Nervous, because I know that I am suppose to say something meaningful to you.

緊張，因為我知道我應該對你說些有意義的話。

Maybe some good advice for you to always remember.

也許有些好的建議你要永遠記住。

But, what has worked for me may not work for you.

但是，對我有用的東西可能對你沒用。

High heel shoes, five inch high heel shoes.

All I gotta say, take my advices some of you boys out there may find yourself on a little different career path.

我想說的是，接受我的建議吧... ...你們中的一些人可能會發現自己走上了一條不同的職業道路。

And you girls better be careful too seriously.

而你們女孩子最好小心太認真。

I wanted to tell you that the way I look is a country girls idea of glamour.

我想告訴你，我的樣子是一個鄉下女孩對魅力的看法。

There was a, what you call a town trollop in our town.

我們鎮上有一個，你們所說的鎮上的巨魔。

Well I thought she was the prettiest thing I&rsquo;d every seen when I was a little girl.

好吧，我覺得她是最漂亮的東西我&rsquo;d每一個看到當我還是一個小女孩。

而每一個機會，我不得不去城裡。

I&rsquo;d see her and I would say oh she&rsquo;s just so pretty.

我&rsquo;看到她，我會說哦，她&rsquo;就是這麼漂亮。

And they&rsquo;d say oh she&rsquo;s just trash.

而他們&rsquo;會說哦，她&rsquo;只是垃圾。

And I thought that&rsquo;s what I&rsquo;m gonna be when I grow up.

我想，我長大後就是這樣的&rsquo;。

And I know that sometimes I look like it but hopefully I&rsquo;m a little more than that.

我知道有時我看起來像它，但希望我&rsquo;比這更多一點。

I&rsquo;d like to believe that there is a brain beneath all this hair.

我&rsquo;願意相信，這些頭髮下面有一個大腦。

而在這些&hellip;他們下面的一顆心。

But seriously this entire moment reminds me of the first time I ever got up to sing on stage

但說真的，這整個時刻讓我想起了我第一次上臺唱歌的情景。

Now I was just a kid and I was nervous then too.

現在我還只是個孩子，那時我也很緊張。

And I wasn&rsquo;t sure that I was going to be able to deliver what the audience wanted from me.

而我並不確定我是否能夠提供觀眾想要的東西。

但是，我確實唱了，他們也確實鼓了掌。

唯一的麻煩是他們想要一個安可。

So I just started up and sang the same song again.

於是我又開始唱起了同樣的歌。

Cause I&rsquo;m not going to repeat this speech. I don&rsquo;t care how much you like it.

因為我&rsquo;不會重複這個演講。我不&rsquo;不在乎你有多喜歡。

But, seriously I remember , you know, all of that.

但是，說真的，我記得 ，你知道，所有的一切。

當然今天也是一個特殊的日子。

They are as proud of you as they will probably ever be.

他們為你感到驕傲，因為他們可能永遠都會這樣。

And they love you as much as they probably ever will.

而他們愛你，因為他們可能永遠都會愛你。

Seems to me like a good time for you to ask them for a loan.

在我看來，這是你向他們貸款的好時機。

We got the smart bank up here. I&rsquo;m sure they could help you out with that.

我們得到了聰明的銀行在這裡。我&rsquo;相信他們能幫你解決這個問題。

You know several years ago I created the Dollywood foundation.

你知道幾年前，我創建了多莉木基金會。

Now I know we wanted to do things to inspire kids.

現在我知道，我們想做的事情是激勵孩子們。

But, like all good organizations we needed the right mission to guide us.

但是，像所有優秀的組織一樣，我們需要正確的使命來指導我們。

And in the end what we came up with was pretty simple.

而最後我們想出的辦法也很簡單。

我們希望他們能有更多的夢想。

Now when I was thinking about what I should say to you today.

現在當我在想今天應該對你說什麼的時候。

Well those four simple things just kept coming back to me.

好吧，這四件簡單的事情就一直在我腦海裡浮現。

So I thought that I would use this as a way to share my thoughts with you.

所以我想，我可以藉此和大家分享我的想法。

Now Governor Bredensen said a whole bunch of things.

現在州長佈雷登森說了一大堆話。

That I was going to say, but I didn&rsquo;t know he was going to say them.

我本來想說的，但我不&rsquo;不知道他會說這些。

So I&rsquo;m going to say what I have to say.

Cause he was right on the money with a whole lot of things he said about me.

因為他說的很多關於我的事情都是對的。

但如果我對你只有一個願望的話。

Now when I was a kid I use to put a tin can on a broom handle.

現在，當我還是個孩子的時候，我經常把一個鐵罐放在掃把上。

I use stick it down in the crack out on the porch of our old cabin.

我把它貼在我們老屋的門廊上的裂縫裡。

And of course in my mind&rsquo;s eye I was standing on a stage.

當然在我的腦海裡&rsquo;眼裡，我是站在一個舞臺上。

And those were not chickens out there in the yard.

It was a dress all a glitter with rhinestones.

那是一件全是閃閃發光的水鑽的衣服。

Now the night I graduated from Sevier County High School.

現在，我從塞維埃縣高中畢業的那個晚上。

We were all asked to stand up and talk about what we were going to do with the rest of our lives.

我們都被要求站起來，說說自己下半生要做什麼。

And when it came my time I stood right up there.

當我的時間到了，我就站在那裡。

I said I&rsquo;m going to Nashville and I&rsquo;m going to be a star.

我說我&rsquo;要去納什維爾，我&rsquo;要成為一個明星。
