明仁如是說

我祈禱明年對所有人都是個好年
I pray that the coming year will be a good year to all

關於這個問題
Regarding the question on

在過去八十年讓我印象特別深刻的是
what events have left me with special impressions over the past eighty years

我會說在我心中最突顯的就是二次世界大戰
I would say that what stands out most in my mind, is the Second World War

這讓我非常痛苦想到
It pains me deeply to think

這麼多人一定有不同的夢想
so many people who must have had various dreams

對未來有不同的希望
and hopes for the future

在年輕時就失去生命
lost their lives at a young age

日本明仁天皇八十歲大壽。
