For better or for worse, your generation has been appointed by history to deal with those problems and to lead America toward a new age. You have the chance never before afforded to any people in any age. You can help build a society where the demands of morality, and the needs of the spirit, can be realized in the life of the Nation.
So, will you join in the battle to give every citizen the full equality which God enjoins and the law requires, whatever his belief, or race, or the color of his skin?Will you join in the battle to give every citizen an escape from the crushing weight of poverty?Will you join in the battle to make it possible for all nations to live in enduring peace — as neighbors and not as mortal enemies?Will you join in the battle to build the Great Society, to prove that our material progress is only the foundation on which we will build a richer life of mind and spirit?
不管怎么说，历史已经选择了你们这一代来解决那些问题，领导美国奔向一个崭新的时代。你们面临着过去人们从未有过的机会。你们能够建设一个道德需要和精神需求都能在国家生活中得以实现的社会。
难道你们不愿加入到这场让每个公民——不管他们的信仰，种族，肤色如何——都享有上帝给予，法律要求的平等权利的斗争中来吗？难道你们不愿加入到这场让每个公民摆脱贫穷纠缠的战斗中来吗？难道你们不愿加入到这场让所有国家像朋友而不是像死敌那样生存在永久和平之中的战斗中来吗？难道你们不愿加入到这场创建“伟大社会”，证明物质发展只是建设更充实的精神生活的基础的战斗中来吗？
