Yesterday, December 7th, 1941 — a date which will live in infamy — the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.

The United States was at peace with that nation and, at the solicitation of Japan, was still in conversation with its government and its emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacific.

昨天,1941年12月7日,我们必须永远记住这个耻辱的日子,在这一天美利坚合众国受到了日本帝国海空军突如其来的蓄意攻击。

美国和日本是和平相处的,根据日本的请求仍在同它的政府和天皇进行会谈,以期待维护太平洋地区的和平。
