贝克汉姆联合国演讲！守护儿童梦想，促进儿童权利！(2)

过去15年来，我一直作为亲善大使与联合国儿童基金会合作，支持他们为全世界儿童所做的工作。今天是世界儿童日，在这一天我们都应该提醒自己，我们对全世界各地的儿童都肩负着责任。我们有责任保护他们，守护他们的希望和抱负，当然还有他们的梦想。
I know from my work with UNICEF just how lucky I was as a child. I grew up in the East End of London. I always dreamed of being a professional footballer. It was all I ever wanted. And unlike many children around the world, I was incredibly lucky.
通过与联合国儿童基金会的合作，我才知道自己小时候有多幸运。我在伦敦东区长大，一直梦想着成为一名职业足球运动员，一直以来这都是我唯一的心愿。跟这个世界其他地方的许多孩子比起来，我真的很幸运。
I had a home, an education and a family to help me achieve my dreams. I worked hard, but I was supported every step of the way, first by my amazing family, then by my teachers and then by my coaches. From a very young age, I had people in my corner who believed in me, who wanted me to succeed, and who helped me to reach my goals.
我有家可归，能接受教育，家人们还非常支持我追寻梦想。除了我本身自己的努力外，更重要的是一路上我也得到了很多支持，刚开始是我了不起的家人，然后是我的老师，再到我的教练。从很小的时候起，身边的人就非常相信我，他们希望我能成功，也一直帮助我朝着目标奋进。
Since 2001, I’ve worked with UNICEF, meeting girls and boys from all over the world. Children much less fortunate than that boy from the East End of London. Children hungry and sick. Children living through wars. Children who lost their parents in earthquakes and floods.
