原文：
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. —Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain [George III] is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
译文：
我们坚信如下的真理不证自明：人生而平等，于生命，自由和追求幸福上的同等权力自神赋予不可侵犯。人们组建政府正是为保障此等权益，才使其拥有公正而强大的权力。故而当任何政府已变得脱离这根本目标，人民便有权将其废除或更换，重新建立在遵循这些原则的基础上行使其相关职能权力的新政府，后者才最有可能保障他们的安全和幸福。诚然我们知道，轻易而急切地将一个建立已久的政府更换并非谨慎的做法，就过去一切经验而言，当人们在还能忍受时不会想到要去打破他们业已习惯的方式，他们更趋向于继续忍受。然而当一个政府长期以来滥用其职权，侵犯公民的正当权益，一成不变地企图将人民置于它专政暴治的淫威下时，我们的权力和义务便迫使我们去推翻它，并为未来的安全建立新的保障。这片殖民地上长期以来的逆来顺受便是如此，到了现在改变旧政府体制的迫切需要也是如此。大英帝国现任国王乔治三世的统治史是一部充满了侵害和虐行的历史，它只有一个目的，在这些州上建立起绝对独裁。为求得公正，现陈述如下事实以证明上述为实。
每句都很难翻，今天回来定心译来，花了不少功夫，不知是否能让您老满意，反正俺是竭心尽力，气数已尽了。
