此刻我心中充满了矛盾。瑞典学院作出了决定,认为我在一种曾经著名于世千百年但现今并没有广泛流传的语言中所作的努力值得接受这个崇高的荣誉。这是对我的祖国的语言的尊敬——而作为报答,我以一种外国语来表示我的感激。我希望诸位允许我对我自己的通融。 At the moment my heart is full of contradictions. The Swedish Academy made the decision that I should honor this noble honor in an endeavor that has been made in a language once famous for centuries but not widely circulated today. This is respect for the language of my home country - and in return I say my gratitude in a foreign language. I hope you will allow me to pass on my own.
