Madam President Faust, members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers, faculty, family, friends, and, most importantly, today’s graduates.
尊敬的福斯特校長(zhǎng)、哈佛集團(tuán)的各位成員、監(jiān)管理事會(huì)的各位理事、全體教職工、各位家長(zhǎng)、各位朋友，以及最重要的各位畢業(yè)生們：

Thank you for letting me share this wonderful day with you.
感謝你們，讓我有機(jī)會(huì)同你們一起分享這個(gè)美妙的日子。

I am not sure I can live up to the high standards of Harvard Commencement speakers. Last year, J.K. Rowling, the billionaire novelist, who started as a classics student, graced this podium. The year before, Bill Gates, the mega-billionaire philanthropist and computer nerd stood here. Today, sadly, you have me. I am not a billionaire, but at least I am a nerd.
我不太肯定自己是否夠得上的哈佛大學(xué)畢業(yè)典禮演講人這樣的殊榮。去年在這個(gè)講臺(tái)上演講的是英國(guó)億萬(wàn)身家的小說(shuō)家J.K.羅琳女士，她起初是一個(gè)學(xué)古典文學(xué)的學(xué)生。前年站在這里的是比爾·蓋茨先生，他是超級(jí)富翁、慈善家和電腦癡。今年很遺憾，是我給你們發(fā)表畢業(yè)演講，雖然我不是億萬(wàn)富翁，但至少我是一個(gè)書(shū)呆子。

I am grateful to receive an honorary degree from Harvard, an honor that means more to me than you might care to imagine. As you may have heard this morning, I was the academic failure of my family. Both My brother have degrees from Harvard. My older brother, Gilbert,after getting a Ph.D. in physics from that other school down the river, got an M.D. Harvard. My younger brother, Morgan Chu, who you just heard his name today at the board overseers, has a law degree. When I was awarded a Nobel Prize, I thought my mother would be pleased. Not so. I called her on the morning of the announcement, she replied, “That’s nice, but when are you going to visit me next.” Now, as the last brother with a degree from Harvard, maybe, at last, she will be pleased.
我很感激哈弗大學(xué)授予我榮譽(yù)學(xué)位，這對(duì)我很重要，也許比你們想象的更重要。你們今天早上可能聽(tīng)說(shuō)了，從學(xué)術(shù)上來(lái)說(shuō)，我在我家很差勁。我的兄弟們都獲得了哈弗學(xué)位。我哥哥吉爾伯特在河下游的那所大學(xué)獲得了物理學(xué)博士學(xué)位之后，又在哈弗大學(xué)獲得醫(yī)學(xué)博士學(xué)位；我弟弟摩根，你們?cè)谛１O(jiān)管理事會(huì)已經(jīng)聽(tīng)到了了他的名字，拿到了哈弗大學(xué)法律學(xué)位。我本人得到諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)的時(shí)候，我想母親會(huì)很高興。但是，我錯(cuò)了。消息公布的那天早上，我打電話給她，她只說(shuō)：“這是個(gè)好消息，不過(guò)我想知道，你下次什么時(shí)候來(lái)看我？”如今在我們兄弟當(dāng)中，我最終也拿到了哈弗大學(xué)的學(xué)位，我想這一次，她會(huì)感到滿意。
