联合国秘书长安南和国际足球联合会主席布拉特尔欢迎世界足联世界杯足球赛开幕的致辞
In a joint message welcoming the opening of the 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany, United Nations Secretary-General Kofi A. Annan and FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter make an appeal for peace, tolerance and development. Their message is addressed to the whole world as it comes together in Munich to witness the start of the world's biggest sporting event.
Football is a global language. It can bridge social, cultural and religious divides. It enhances personal development and growth, teaches us teamwork and fair play, builds self-esteem and opens doors to new opportunities. This, in turn, can contribute to the well-being of whole communities and countries.
That is why the United Nations is using football as a tool in our work to reach the Millennium Development Goals - the set of powerful, people-centred objectives adopted by all countries as a blueprint for building a better world in the 21st century.
And it is why the United Nations is turning to football in our efforts to heal the emotional wounds of war among young people in refugee camps, and in countries recovering from armed conflict.
At the World Summit last year, all of the world's Governments declared that "sports can foster peace and development, and can contribute to an atmosphere of tolerance and understanding".
Over the next few weeks, as billions of people worldwide focus on the FIFA World Cup, we appeal to players and fans everywhere to support to us in our mission. Let us harness the magic of football in our quest for development and peace.
足球是全球通用的语言。足球可以弥合社会、文化和宗教分歧。足球促进个人发展和成长，教我们团队协作和公平竞争，建立自尊并打开新的机会之门。进而可以促进整个社会和各个国家的福祉。
正因为如此，联合国正在把足球作为我们工作中一个工具，用以实现千年发展目标——即各国作为建设二十一世纪更美好世界的蓝图而通过的一整套强有力的、以人为本的目标。
也正因为如此，联合国正在难民营内和刚刚摆脱武装冲突的国家借助足球来弥合战争给年轻人留下的情绪创伤。
世界各国政府曾在去年世界首脑会议上宣布，“体育可以促进和平与发展，并可助长宽容与谅解的气氛”。
今后几个星期，全世界几十亿人都将聚精会神地关注世界足联的世界杯比赛，我们吁请各地球员和球迷们支持我们的使命。让我们利用足球的魅力来促进发展与和平的事业。

德国总理默克尔 (Angela Merkel) 的问候
There are many dimensions to football's allure and appeal: top-class moves, thrilling goals, majestic star players, thunderous encounters and passionate fans. Football stirs the emotions all over the globe, brings people from contrasting cultures together, and promotes solid virtues such as fairness, team spirit and tolerance. All these facets will emerge in their most intense form at the 2006 FIFA World Cup? in Germany next summer.
Millions of people will be transfixed by this unique festival of sport and friendship. We are thoroughly looking forward to football of the highest quality. We're delighted to welcome the biggest names in the sport as well as those nations set to appear at the finals for the first time. And we're looking forward to greeting fans from all over the world as they fill our cities with even more colour and life. A heartfelt welcome to everyone!
Germany is a cosmopolitan country with a passion for football. The people will devote themselves to the job of ensuring the 2006 FIFA World Cup is an unforgettable experience, a fact demonstrated by the thousands of ordinary folk who have come forward as volunteers.
Germany is well prepared to host the FIFA World Cup. We have finished constructing our new, modern stadiums and an outstanding transportation infrastructure. The organisation is in the enormously capable hands of the Organising Committee headed by Franz Beckenbauer. The slogan "A time to make friends?" perfectly describes our intention to ensure everyone revels in a secure and peaceful festival of football.
The FIFA World Cup is a unique opportunity for Germany to present herself as a hospitable, joyful and modern nation bursting with ideas. I am convinced that the flames of passion and togetherness engendered by the FIFA World Cup in Germany will spread to the entire world.
I'm personally looking forward to a festival of goals, excitement and fair play. We Germans will be right behind our national team, but our aim is to act as welcoming hosts and friends to every team and their fans. Passionate and cosmopolitan Germany is delighted to welcome visitors to the 2006 FIFA World Cup.

来自国际足联主席约瑟夫·布拉特的问候
"Welcome to the 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany?"来自国际足联主席约瑟夫·布拉特的问候
Seventeen years after the fall of the Berlin wall, a reunified Germany will throw open its doors to the world. Germany 2006 will be a place where people from all around the world will be welcomed by friends, in the spirit of the striking slogan chosen by the organisers: Die Welt zu Gast bei Freunden.
The tournament is being held on the finest stage in the world, one whose symbolism far transcends the boundaries of sport. Hark back to Germany’s triumph at the 1954 FIFA World Cup in Switzerland, which sealed the country’s return to the international fold in the most beautiful manner possible.
In 2006, Germans will have the opportunity to rectify certain clichés and preconceived ideas. The world will have the chance to see what a fantastic country Germany truly is: the beauty and diversity of its landscapes, its rich cultural heritage and the intelligence and good humour of its people.
As for the legendary German work ethic and organisational skills, I am pleased to say those perennial qualities are alive and well - and we at FIFA are only too happy to take advantage of them.
For at all levels, the overall investment in any World Cup tournament is immense. The event is financially supported by the German state, but also by the “L?nder” and the Host Cities. I would like to take this opportunity to offer my heartfelt thanks to all those who are currently working with such passion and commitment to make the occasion a memorable one.
Today’s efforts will bear fruit tomorrow. German football, for example, will boast twelve spanking new or vastly improved stadiums in 2006. The whole German population too will benefit in terms of better transport and reception infrastructures.
Football clubs, schools and people all over the land have really got behind this great event, providing further proof, if any were needed, of the prominent role football plays in all our lives. In this respect I would like to congratulate the German Football Association for inviting people from all walks of live to take part in this great event.
Needless to say, none of this comes as a surprise and I am well aware of the loyalty of the Deutscher Fussball-Bund* and its President, my good friend Gerhard Mayer-Vorfelder. They enjoy my complete confidence in their ability to organise a tournament every bit as good as in 1974.
Like Mexico, Italy and France, Germany is now organising its second FIFA World Cup. The first saw the great Franz Beckenbauer lift the trophy as captain of the winning team. Today, he presides over the Local Organising Committee in the run-up to a tournament which has changed considerably down the years: back in 1974, only sixteen sides took part, including the now-defunct German Democratic Republic (GDR) and Zaire. The latter were the only representative from the African continent and conceded fourteen goals with no reply.
The 2006 tournament will be a vastly different affair. Thirty-two teams will have qualified, including five from Africa, all of whom now perform at a far higher level. Just remember how Senegal upset the odds in Korea and Japan in 2002. The same can be said for Asian teams, who produced a semi-finalist last year, something which would have been unthinkable back in 1974!
These performances bear witness to FIFA’s efforts in the last quarter of a century to help the nations of the football world to compete on an equal footing. I will have the immense pleasure of welcoming you amongst my friends in Germany. We look forward to seeing you in 2006 to celebrate this unity!
Joseph S. Blatter
FIFA President
2006德国世界杯欢迎你
推倒柏林墙的17年后，一个重新统一的德国向世界打开了他的大门，德国世界杯将成为全世界各国球迷欢聚一堂、结交朋友的场所，这就是赛事组织者选择比赛口号的精髓：Die Welt zu Gast bei Freunden（欢聚德国 结缘天下）。
本届世界杯将在全世界最好的赛场进行，它的象征意义已经远远超越体育的界限。如同返回到1954年德国在瑞士赢得世界杯的成功，它标志着一个国家可以以一种最优美的姿态回到世界大家庭。
2006年，德国人将有机会改变某些陈腐之词和先入为主的观念，整个世界也有机会亲眼目睹一个想象中的国家最真实的一面：它美丽多姿的风景、丰富的文化遗产和智慧幽默的人民。
这个传奇德国保持着传统的道德伦理和严格的组织作风，我很高兴地说那些固有的优秀品质现在依然很好地保持着——国际足联也很高兴有机会充分利用这一点。
不管在哪一种水平上，每届世界杯比赛都能得到极好的投资。这项赛事不仅有德国各州的资助，同时也得到来自“Lander（国家）”和主办城市的资助。我很高兴利用这个机会表达我衷心的感谢，感谢那些热情工作的人们，感谢那些愿意带给我们难忘回忆的人们。
今天的努力将在明天收获丰硕的成果。在2006年，德国足球将为它12个崭新或大量改良的体育场而自豪，德国人民也将受益于更好的交通和接待等基础设施。
无论有任何考验、任何需要，德国的足球俱乐部、学校以及全体德国人民都会全力支持这项在我们心目中最盛大的足球赛事。从这一方面来说，我要祝贺德国足协能有来自社会各阶层的热情人民参与到这项盛会中来。
毋庸置疑，我也十分清楚德国足球联盟及其主席，我的好朋友格哈德·迈尔·沃菲尔德的尽职尽责。凭借他们的才干，我有全部的信心，相信他们能够组织出如同1974年世界杯一样完美的赛事。
和墨西哥、意大利、法国一样，德国现在已经是第二次主办世界杯比赛，第一次德国世界杯上我们看到弗朗茨·贝肯鲍尔作为冠军球队的队长高高举起冠军奖杯，现在他负责主持的德国组委会正在为世界杯热身，当然现在的世界杯和当年的世界杯相比已经有了很大的变化：回到1974年，只有16支球队参加比赛，包括现在以后不存在的前民主德国（GDR）和扎伊尔。后者是来自非洲国家的唯一代表，不过在世界杯上他们14次被攻破大门而自己却没有一个进球。
2006年世界杯就完全是另外一个样子了，有32支球队最后进入决赛圈，其中包括5支来自非洲的球队，他们现在的水平早已有了很大提高。回忆一下2002年日韩世界杯上塞内加尔如何成为黑马，可以说这种情况同样发生在韩国队身上，去年世界杯上他们更打入半决赛。有些事情在1974年真是无法想象的！
这些成绩见证了国际足联在最近四分之一个世纪中所作出的努力——帮助足球世界中的各国球队在同一起点上进行比赛。我将非常高兴地欢迎大家来德国，来到我的朋友们中间，我们期待着能在2006年看到您，来一起欢庆这举世瞩目的盛典。
约瑟夫·斯·布拉特
国际足联主席
