オバマ大統領の演説　易しい英語版24

It is the kindness

to take in a stranger

when the levees break;

the selflessness of workers

who would rather cut their hours

than see a friend lose their job

which sees us through

our darkest hours.

It is the firefighter's courage

to storm a stairway

filled with smoke,

but also a parent's willingness

to nurture a child,

that finally decides our fate.

EZ OBAMA 24

For as much as government can do

and must do,

it is finally

the belief, trust and hard work

of the American people

upon which this nation depends.

It is the kindness

to take a stranger into your home

when the river banks break; [New Orleans hurricane Katrina]

the selflessness of workers

who would rather cut their work hours

than see a friend lose their job

which sees us through

our darkest hours.

It is the firefighter's bravery

to run up a stairway

filled with smoke, [9/11 Terror Attack]

but also a parent's willingness

to take care of a child,

that finally decides our fate.
