应阿富汗伊斯兰共和国政府的邀请，我很高兴对阿富汗进行正式访问。我愿代表友好的中国人民，向我们的邻居阿富汗人民致以诚挚的问候和衷心的祝福。
It gives me great pleasure to pay an official visit to the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan at the invitation of the Afghan government. I wish to extend, on behalf of the friendly Chinese people, the cordial greetings and best wishes to our neighbor, the people of Afghanistan.
近日阿富汗遭受地震灾害，中国人民感同身受，习近平主席、李克强总理致电阿富汗领导人表示慰问，中国政府为阿富汗抗震救灾提供了力所能及的援助。中国政府向阿方提供的价值1000万元人民币的人道主义救援物资昨天运抵喀布尔。中国红十字会已向阿红新月会提供10万美元紧急现汇援助。为进一步帮助阿方救灾，中国政府决定再向阿政府提供100万美元紧急现汇援助。我们愿根据阿方救灾需求，尽最大努力继续提供力所能及的援助。相信在加尼总统和阿卜杜拉首席执行官的领导下，阿富汗人民一定能够克服困难，重建家园。
After Afghanistan was hit by earthquake recently, our heart went out to the Afghan people. President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang both sent messages of sympathy to the Afghan leaders, and the Chinese government has done all it can to provide disaster-relief assistance to Afghanistan. Humanitarian relief supplies worth 10 million yuan provided by the Chinese government arrived in Kabul yesterday. The Red Cross Society of China has provided US$100,000 of grants in emergency aid to the Red Crescent of Afghanistan. To further help Afghanistan with disaster relief effort, the Chinese government has decided to provide another one million US dollars of emergency assistance to the Afghan government. We are ready to provide further assistance to the best of our ability in line with Afghan needs. We are convinced that under the leadership of President Ashraf Ghani and Chief Executive Abdullah Abdullah, the Afghan people will prevail over the difficulty and rebuild their home.
阿富汗位于亚洲中心地带，曾是古代丝绸之路上一颗璀璨的明珠。川流不息的客商，四通八达的贸易，使喀布尔从中世纪起就以繁荣而闻名。上世纪五六十年代，阿富汗富足安详，被誉为“中亚的瑞士”。阿富汗人民创造了辉煌灿烂的文化，为亚洲和世界的文明发展做出了独特贡献。在波斯文学史上享有崇高声誉的著名诗人莫拉维·贾拉鲁丁·鲁米就出生在今天的阿富汗境内。阿富汗民族是不屈不挠的伟大民族，多次抵御外来入侵，坚决捍卫国家的独立和自由，书写了可歌可泣的历史长卷，赢得了各国人民的赞誉和尊敬。
Afghanistan, at the heart of Asia, was once a shining pearl on the ancient Silk Road. In the Middle Ages, Kabul became famous for its prosperity brought about by busy trade. In the 1950s and 60s, the peaceful and prosperous Afghanistan was known as “Switzerland of Asia”. The splendid culture created by the Afghan people made a unique contribution to the civilizations of Asia and beyond. Maulana Jalaluddin Rumi, the renowned poet in the history of Persian literature, was born in today's Afghanistan. This is also a great nation of fortitude and perseverance. Its struggle against foreign aggressions in defense of national independence and freedom has left a moving chapter in human history and won the admiration and respect of people of the world.
