YES WE CAN adalah pidato Barrack Obama yang saya nilai paling berkesan, bahkan pidato ini juga telah dibuat menjadi sebuah lagu, saya menangkap ada 2 kata yang sangat besar artinya yaitu YES WE CAN dan WE WANT CHANGE...disini saya tulis keseluruhan dari pidato itu. berikut juga lagunya
YES WE CAN
It was a creed
written into the founding documents
that declared the destiny
of a nation.
Yes we can.
It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists
as they blazed a trail toward freedom.
Yes we can. Yes we can.
It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores
and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.
Yes we can. Yes we can.
It was the call of workers who organized;
women who reached for the ballots;
a President who chose the moon as our new frontier;
and a King who took us to the mountain-top
and pointed the way to the Promised Land.
Yes we can to justice and equality.
(yes we can, yes we can, yes we can, yes we can…)
Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.
Yes we can to opportunity and prosperity.
Yes we can heal this nation.
Yes we can repair this world.
Yes we can. Si Se Puede
(yes we can, yes we can, yes we can, yes we can…)
We know the battle ahead will be long,
but always remember that no matter what obstacles stand in our way,
nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.
We want change!
(We want change! We want change! We want change…)
We have been told
we cannot do this
by a Chorus of cynics
who will only grow louder
and more dissonant.
We’ve been asked
to pause for a reality check.
We’ve been warned against offering
the people of this nation false hope.
But in the unlikely story that is America
there has never been anything false about hope.
We want change!
(We want change! I want change! We want change! I want change…)
The hopes of the little girl who goes to a crumbling school in Dillon
are the same as the dreams of the boy who learns on the streets of LA;
we will remember that there is something happening in America;
that we are not as divided as our politics suggests;
that we are one people;
we are one nation;
and together, we will begin the next great chapter in America’s story
with three words that will ring from coast to coast;
from sea to shining sea
Yes. We. Can.
(yes we can, yes we can, yes we can, yes we can, yes we can, yes we can, yes we can, yes we can…)
saya sendiri secara personal berharap apa yang dikatakan bukan hanya pidato kemenangan saja, tapi juga dapat diwujudkan, agar apa yang kita lihat di dunia ini lebih baik dan indah...
