“这是个改变改变改变的季节” # There is a season, turn, turn, turn # “为了任何目标而开始的时刻” # And a time to every purpose # “在整个世界” # Under heaven #
这是个人的一小步 That's one small step for man, 人类的一大步 one giant leap for mankind.
我以为我要回越南去 I thought I was going back to Vietnam, 但他们又觉得 but instead they decided
我对付共产党的最好办法 the best way for me to fight the Communists 是打乒乓球 was to play Ping-Pong,
于是我接受了一个特别任务 so I was in the special Services, 走遍全国 traveling around the country,
慰劳负伤的老兵，为他们表演 cheering up wounded veterans and showing'em 怎么打乒乓球 how to play Ping-Pong.
我打得很好，所以几年后 I was so good that some years later, 军队又觉得我应该 the army decided I should be 加入全美乒乓球队 on the all-American Ping-Pong team.
我们是第一批访问中国大陆的美国人 We were the first Americans to visit the land of China 大约一百万年以来 in a million years or something.
有人说世界和平就在我们手中 Somebody said world peace was in our hands, 但我所做的只不过是打乒乓球 but all I did was play Ping-Pong.
你能不能告诉我们，嗯 Can you tell us, um, 中国是怎么样的？ what was China like? 在中国大陆? In the land of China...
人们差不多什么都没有 people hardly got nothin'at all. 没有财产？ No possessions?
在中国，他们不去教堂 And in China, they never go to church. 也没有宗教？ No religion, too? 难以想象 Hard to imagine.

嗯，只要你肯试着想象，迪克 Well, it's easy if you try, Dick.
你找到耶稣了吗，阿甘？ Have you found Jesus yet, Gump?
我不知道我应该去找他，长官 I didn't know I was supposed to be looking for Him, sir. 从越南回来的残废军人 That's all these cripples down at the V. A.-- 他们都这么说 That's all they ever talk about. 耶稣这个耶稣那个，哈 Jesus this and Jesus that. Ha. 我?找到耶稣了吗？ Have I...found Jesus?
他们还叫了个牧师来和我聊天 They even had a priest come and talk to me. 他说上帝在听着 He said God is listening, 但我只能顾到自己 but I have to help myself.
如果我的心能接受耶稣 Now, if I accept Jesus into my heart,
我就可以与他在天国同行 I'll get to walk beside Him in the kingdom of heaven.
你不喜欢过新年吗？ Don't you just love New Year's? 你能够重新开始 You can start all over.
每人都有新的机会 Everybody gets a second chance.
有些事你是无法改变的 there's some things you just can't change. 他不想被称为残废 He didn't want to be called crippled
就象我不想被称为傻瓜 just like I didn't want to be called stupid.
你是疯子还是傻瓜？ Are you crazy or just plain stupid?
做傻事的才是傻瓜，布鲁太太 Stupid is as stupid does, Mrs. Blue. 我想也是 I guess. 当然 And, of course,
“你不能改变那只小鸟” # Oh, and the bird you cannot change # “你不能改变这只小鸟” # And this bird you cannot change # “上天知道我无法改变” # Lord knows I can't change # “上天保佑我无法改变” # Lord, help me, I can't change #

他从来没说出来 He never actually said so,
但我想他跟上帝已经讲和了 but I think he made his peace with God.
怎么了，妈妈？ What's the matter, Mama? 我快死了，福雷斯 I'm dying, Forrest.
为什么你快死了，妈妈？ Why are you dying, Mama? 我的时候到了 It's my time. 因为我的时候到了 It's just my time. 现在? Oh, now...
你不用害怕，宝贝 don't you be afraid, sweet heart . 死亡只是生命的一部分 Death is just a part of life . 是我们注定要面对的 Something we're all destined to do. 我并不知道 I didn't know it,
但我注定要做你的妈妈 but I was destined to be your mama. 我就尽力做好 I did the best I could. 你做得很好 You did good.
嗯?我相信你能实现自己的命运 Well...I happen to believe you make your own destiny . 你要凭着上帝所给予的做到最好 You have to do the best with what God gave you. 我的命运是什么，妈妈？ What's my destiny, Mama?
你要自己去弄明白 You're going to have to figure that out for yourself. 人生就像一盒各式各样的巧克力 Life is a box of chocolates, Forrest. 你永远不知道下一块将会是哪种 You never know what you're going to get. 妈妈总有办法把事情说清楚 Mama always hada way of explaining things 让我也能听明白 so I could understand them.
那一天 That day,
不知什么原因 for no particular reason,
我决定出去跑一趟 I decided to go for a little run. 所以我跑到路的尽头 So I ran to the end of the road,
当我到达那里，我想也许我能跑到城边 and when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town.

而当我到达那里 And when I got there,
我想也许我能跑遍绿茵县 I thought maybe I'd just run across Greenbow County. 这时我想既然我跑了那么远 Now, I figured since I'd run this far,
也许我可以跑遍亚拉巴马州 maybe I'd just run across the great state of Alabama. 我就这么做了 And that's what I did.
我横越整个亚拉巴马 I ran clear across Alabama.
不知什么原因，我继续跑 No particular reason. I just kept on going. 我一直跑到大海 I ran clear to the ocean. 当我到达那里 And when I got there,
我想既然我跑了那么远 I figured since I'd gone this far,
也许不如掉头继续跑 might as well turn around, just keep on going. 然后当我跑到另一个大海 And when I got to another ocean, 我想既然我跑了那么远? I figured since I'd gone this far... 我也许不如掉头 I might as well just turn back 继续跑下去 and keep right on going. 当我累了，我就睡觉 when I got tired, I slept. 当我饿了，我就吃饭 when I got hungry, I ate. 当我想去? When I had to go... 你知道? you know... 我就去 I went. 所以? And so... 你不停地跑? you just ran?
“看着路在车轮下延伸” # Lookin' out at the road rushin' under my wheels # “看着一年年时光飞逝” # Lookin' back at the years gone by # “就象一片片夏日农田” # Like so many summer fields # “六五年那时我十七岁” # In '65, I was 17 #
“我在一刻不停地奔跑” # And runnin' up one on one # “我不知道跑到了何处” # I don't know where I'm runnin' now # “我只是在不停地奔跑” # I'm just runnin' on # “奔跑” # Runnin' on #
