呼唤正义

                   原文为德文

在波士顿犹太人屠杀纪念碑上,铭刻着这样一首诗:

                呼唤正义

                   马丁·尼默勒

 

They came first for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time no one was left to speak up.

 

在德国,起初他们追杀共产主义者,

我没有说话,因为我不是共产主义者;

接着他们追杀犹太人,

我没有说话,因为我不是犹太人;

后来他们追杀工会成员,

我没有说话,因为我不是工会成员;

此后,他们追杀天主教徒,

我没有说话,因为我是新教教徒;

最后,他们竟然奔我而来,

却再也没有人站起来为我说话了。
