Você não pode namorar até se casar.
Sim, esse foi o único conselho amoroso
que recebi dos meus pais,
imigrantes nigerianos rigorosos,
quando, com 16, perguntei se podia namorar
assim como meus amigos americanos.
E tudo o que respondiam era:
"Yvonne, você não pode
namorar até você se casar".
O que isso significa, gente?
Gente...
Como posso casar, se eu nunca namorar?
E ainda mais importante, como posso
fazer sexo, se eu nunca namorar?
Mas o que o meu pai dava um jeito
de fazer com aquela frase curta,
além de me deixar completamente confusa,
era incutir o medo de Deus
e de seu cinto na minha vida.
Então decidi: quer saber,
quando eu fizer 18, vou ser uma adulta.
Certo? Vou ser uma adulta.

You cannot date until you get married.
Yeah, that was the only dating advice
that I got for my very strict
immigrant Nigerian parents
when at 16, I asked them if I could date
like all my other American friends.
And all I got back was:
"Yvonne, you cannot date
until you get married."
What does that even mean, guys?
Guys ...
How can I get married if I never date?
And more importantly,
how can I have sex if I never date?
But what my father managed to do
in that very short sentence,
other than utterly confuse me,
is instill the fear of God
and his belt in my life.
So I decided, you know what,
when I turn 18, I'm gonna be an adult.
Okay? I'm going to be an adult.

אין לצאת עם בנים לפני החתונה.
כן, זו העצה יחידה בקשר ליחסים
שקיבלתי מההורים הקשוחים שלי שעלו מניגריה
כשבגיל 16 שאלתי אותם אם אני יכולה
לצאת לדייטים כמו שאר חבריי האמריקאים.
והתשובה היחידה הייתה:
"איבון, אין לצאת עם בנים לפני החתונה."
חבר'ה, מה זה בכלל אומר?
חבר'ה...
איך אתחתן אם לעולם לא אצא לדייט?
והחשוב מכול, איך אעשה סקס
אם לעולם לא אצא לדייט?
אך מה שאבי הצליח לעשות במשפט הקצר הזה,
מלבד לבלבל אותי לגמרי,
הוא להחדיר בי יראת אלוהים
ויראת החגורה שלו.
אז החלטתי, יודעים מה,
כשאהיה בת 18, אהיה בוגרת.
בסדר? אני אהיה בוגרת.

iw: 
אוכל לקבל החלטות בוגרות,
ולא אצטרך לבקש רשות לצאת
כי אהיה בת 18.
בנוסף, כשאהיה בת 18,
אני מתכוונת להתחתן.
אני מתכוות לעשות סקס.
כן, זה מה שאעשה,
אעשה סקס כשאהיה בת 18.
גם תכננתי כבר את הכול.
יהיו לי עלי ורדים מפוזרים,
יהיו לי נרות,
מיטת מים, אם יהיה מזל,
ותינגן לי ברקע שירו של מקסוול
"זו עבודה של אישה".
כן!
כי "אהבה וכדורסל" הוא הסרט האהוב עליי.
(צחוק)
אך כשהגעתי לתיכון, כל הבנות
אפשר לומר ניפצו לי את החלום.
הן אמרו לי "אממ, איבון,
"הציפיות שלך לפעם הראשונה גבוהות מדי.
"תגידי תודה אם זה יקרה
במושב האחורי של מכונית,
"או בדירת מרתף של אמא שלו."
מה קרה? אתם רואים את פניי?
זה ממש לא מה שישו תכנן עבורי.
זה לא הולך להיות מה שאספר לבתי
על הפעם הראשונה והקסומה שלי.
אז חיכיתי. אמרתי, "אני יכולה לחכות."
חיכיתי לי, וכמובן -
כי אני לא מאלה שנכנעים ללחץ חברתי,

Portuguese: 
Vou tomar minhas decisões adultas,
e não preciso pedir para namorar
porque eu vou ter 18.
E, quando fizer 18, eu vou fazer sexo.
Sim, é isso que vou fazer,
vou fazer sexo quando tiver 18.
Eu tinha tudo planejado, gente.
Eu teria pétalas de rosas,
teria velas,
uma cama de água, se tivesse sorte,
e "This Woman's Work" de Maxwell
estaria tocando como música de fundo.
Sim!
Porque "Além dos limites"
é o meu filme favorito.
(Risos)
Mas, quando cheguei no ensino médio,
as garotas esmagaram meus sonhos.
Elas ficavam, tipo: "Hum, Yvonne,
suas expectativas são muito altas
para a sua primeira vez.
Você terá sorte se conseguir
o banco de trás do carro de um cara
ou o quartinho do porão na casa
da mãe de algum carinha".
O quê? Você vê minha cara?
Essa não era a vontade
de Jesus para minha vida.
Não seria isso que eu diria à minha filha
sobre minha majestosa primeira vez.
Então esperei.
Fiquei tipo: "Posso esperar".
Esperei e, com certeza...
Nunca fui de ceder à pressão dos outros,

English: 
And I can make adult decisions,
and I don't need permission to date
because I'm going to be 18.
Also, when I turn 18,
I'm going to get married.
I'm going to have sex.
Yep, that's what I'll do,
I'm gonna have sex when I turn 18.
I had it all planned out, y'all.
I was going to have rosepetals,
I was going to have candles,
a waterbed, if I was lucky,
and Maxwell's "This Woman's Work"
was going to be playing in the background.
Yes!
Because "Love & Basketball"
is my favorite movie.
(Laughter)
But when I got to high school, 
all the girls kind of crushed my dreams.
They were, like, "Um, Yvonne,
your expectations are way too high
for your first time.
You should be lucky if you get
the back seat of some guy's car,
or the basement apartment
in some dude's mama's house."
What? Do you see my face?
That was not the will
of Jesus for my life.
That was not going to be what I told
my daughter about my majestic first time.
So I waited. I was like, "I can wait."
I waited it out, and sure -
Because I was never one
to buckle under peer pressure,

Portuguese: 
mas, ano após ano, lentamente percebi
que estava me tornando o único
membro no clube das virgens.
Está tudo bem.
Tudo bem, porque, no meu último ano,
eu nem tinha identificado meu cúmplice.
Isso mesmo!
Ele era negro e porto-riquenho:
(Espanhol) "Oi amigo,
você é latino. Mas sabe..."
(Risos)
Ele era estranho também!
Eu fiquei tipo: "Olhe Jesus; ele veio".
(Risos)
Eu estava tipo: "Essa espera
vai valer a pena".
Expliquei as regras para ele,
e eu estava checando, tudo bem, tenho 17.
Certo, faltam mais alguns meses
até completar 18 anos; vai acontecer.
Velas,
cama de água,
(Risos)
pétalas de rosas...
Tipo, tinha conseguido.
Achei que tinha derrubado ele.
Achei que tivesse concordado.
Até meu primeiro ano da faculdade,
com 17 anos, faltando três ou quatro
meses para meu aniversário de 18,
quando percebi que havia outras garotas
que não tinham o mesmo prazo que eu.
E elas fizeram suas ofertas a ele,
e ele aceitou.

English: 
but year after year, I slowly realized
that I was becoming
the only member of the V-club.
That's cool.
That's cool because by my senior year,
I hadn't even identified my accomplice.
That's right!
He was a black and Puertorican papi:
"Hola mija, tú eres latino.
Pero tú sabes ..."
(Laughter)
He was a freak, too!
I was, like, "Look at Jesus;
he cometh to."
(Laughter)
I was, like, this wait
is going to be worth it.
And I told him the game,
and I was checking, alright, I'm 17.
Okay, I got a couple more months
to my 18th birthday; it's going down.
Candles,
water bed,
(Laughter)
rose petals ...
Like, I laid it down. I thought
he was down for the count.
I thought he was down for it.
Until my freshman year of college,
17 with about three or four months
left to go to my 18th birthday,
and I realized that there were other girls
who did not have
the same timeline as I did.
And they projected their offer to him,
and he and he took them up on their offer.

iw: 
אך עם כל שנה שעברה, הבנתי יותר
שאני הופכת לחברה היחידה במועדון בתולות.
הכול טוב.
הכול טוב כי עד השנה האחרונה לתיכון
לא יכולתי לזהות עוד את שותפי 'לפשע'.
בדיוק!
הוא היה גבר-גבר פורטוריקני ושחור:
(בספרדית)
(צחוק)
ובנוסף הוא היה פריק!
אמרתי "תראו, הנה ישו יורד אליי."
(צחוק)
אמרתי לעצמי, ההמתנה הזו תהיה שווה כל רגע.
אז הכנסתי אותו לעניינים,
אמרתי, תקשיב, אני בת 17.
בסדר? יש לי עוד כמה חודשים
עד ליום הולדת ה-18. זה הולך לקרות.
נרות,
מיטת מים,
(צחוק)
עלי ורדים...
פרסתי בפניו את התוכנית.
חשבתי שהוא זורם איתי.
חשבתי שהוא מוכן ומזומן לביצוע.
עד שהגיעה שנתי הראשונה בקולג',
אני בת 17, עוד 3-4 חודשים
עד ליום הולדת ה-18 שלי,
וגיליתי שהיו בסביבה בנות אחרות
שהלו"ז שלהם לא חפף ללו"ז שלי.
הן השליכו בפניו הצעות בעניין,
והוא, והוא נענה להצעותיהן.

Portuguese: 
E tudo bem, porque eu disse:
"Quer saber, Yvonne?
Você está na faculdade,
tenho certeza que tem um novinho
lindo que trabalha e estuda,
então ele pode comprar as pétalas
de rosas que você quer;
cujo colega de quarto vai
para casa no fim de semana,
e você pode levar seus lençóis, garota".
Então, a vida interrompe
os planos de um jeito engraçado,
porque numa quinta-feira
uma amiga me convidou
para um estudo bíblico no campus.
Sabe, eu amo Jesus;
ele é legal, por que não?
Vamos.
Cheguei no estudo bíblico,
e lá estava essa linda ministra,
ela era estudante de medicina,
e ela falou de como tinha 25 anos
e esperava até se casar para fazer sexo.
Espera aí. Quê? Tempo! Jesus, 
o que aconteceu? Quem a feriu?
Eu não entendo.
Por que alguém faria isso?
Isso é inaceitável.
Humm, quê?
Não estou aqui para isso.
Não é para isso que eu vim.
(Risos)
E sentei lá com os braços cruzados, tipo:
"Isso? Não. Eu não... Isso não é
a vontade de Jesus para minha vida".

English: 
And that's cool, because I said,
"You know what, Yvonne?
You are in college;
I am sure there's a pretty young thing
who has work study,
so he can afford these rose petals
that you're looking for,
and whose roommate
goes home on the weekends,
so you can get your set of sheets girl.
And then, life has a funny way
of interrupting your plans
because one faithful Thursday,
a friend of mine invited me
to a campus Bible study.
You know, I love Jesus;
he cool, why not?
Let's go.
I got to the Bible study,
and there was this beautiful minister,
she was a med student,
and she talked about how she was 25
and waiting until marriage to have sex.
Hold up. What? Time out.
Jesus, what happened? Who hurt her?
I don't understand.
Why would anybody do this?
This is unacceptable.
Mmm, what?
I'm not here for this.
This is not why I came.
(Laughter)
And I sat there
with my arms crossed, like,
"This? No. I don't ... This is not
the will of Jesus for my life."

iw: 
וזה בסדר, אמרתי לעצמי,
"איבון, את יודעת מה?
"את בקולג',
"אני בטוחה שיש בסביבה
בחור צעיר חמוד שלומד ועובד,
"שיכול להרשות עלי ורדים
שאת מצפה להם כל-כך,
"ושהשותף שלו לחדר עוזב בסופי שבוע,
"כך שתוכלי להנות מהסדינים שלך."
ואז, לחיים יש נטייה משונה
להתערב לך בתוכניות,
כי ביום חמישי גורלי אחד,
אחת החברות הזמינה אותי לשיעור מקרא בקמפוס,
אתם יודעים, אני אוהבת את ישו,
הוא מגניב, למה לא?
קדימה.
הגעתי לשיעור מקרא,
והייתה שם אשת דת יפייפיה,
היא הייתה סטודנטית לרפואה,
והיא סיפרה על כך שהיא בת 25
ומחכה לחתונה לקיום היחסים.
עצרו רגע. מה? פסק זמן.
ישו, מה קורה? מי פגע בה?
אני לא מבינה.
למה שמישהו יעשה את זה?
זה לא מקובל עליי.
אממ, מה?
זה לא בשבילי.
לא בשביל זה באתי.
(צחוק)
ישבתי שם עם ידיים משולבות,
"זה? לא. אני לא..
זה לא מה שישו תכנן בשבילי."

Portuguese: 
E enquanto ouvia,
ela falava do quanto Deus
era importante para ela,
e Ele tinha feito tanto para ela
que esse pedido não era nada
diante das grandes coisas.
Eu estava tipo: "Certo, o que mais?"
E então ela continuou falando,
e sua paixão por Cristo
era realmente intrigante
porque ela chamava Deus de "papai".
Eu nunca tinha ouvido ninguém
chamá-Lo de "papai".
Tipo, isso era bem íntimo e pessoal.
Então me vi indo disso para isso.
E, quando me dei conta, gente,
eu tinha sido pega por Jesus.
(Risos)
Fui salva com 17 anos.
Eu disse a Ele que esperaria até 18,
e Ele me agarrou com 17, e agora:
33.
Ainda esperando; continuamos esperando.
Mas, tudo bem.
Não me importo em esperar...
Obrigada.
(Aplausos) (Vivas)

iw: 
אבל, בזמן שהקשבתי לדבריה,
היא סיפרה כמה אלוהים חשוב לה,
וכמה הוא עשה בשבילה,
שהדבר לא נושא בכלל עניין
כשמסתכלים על התמונה הגדולה.
אז חשבתי, "טוב, מה עוד יש לך להציע?"
והיא המשיכה לדבר,
והתשוקה שלה לישו סיקרנה מאוד
כי היא קראה לאלוהים "אבא'לה".
מעולם לא שמעתי מישהו קורא לו "אבא'לה."
זה היה כל-כך אינטימי ואישי.
אז מצאתי את עצמי עוברת מתנוחה זו, אל זו.
ולפני שהספקתי להבין מה קורה,
ישו הוליך אותי שולל.
(צחוק)
ניצלתי בגיל 17.
אמרתי לו שאחכה לגיל 18,
והוא נדחף לו בגיל 17, ועכשיו:
33.
עדיין מחכים. אנו עדיין מחכים.
אבל הכל טוב.
ההמתנה לא מפריעה לי -
תודה רבה.
(מחיאות) (תרועות)

English: 
And as I listened, though,
she talked about just how much 
God was so important to her,
and he had done so much for her
that this ask was not a big deal
in the grand scheme of things.
I was, like, "Okay, what else you got?"
And then she kept talking,
and her passion for Christ
was really intriguing
because she called God "daddy."
I've never had heard anybody
call him "daddy."
Like, that was very intimate
and very personal.
So I found myself
going like this, to like this.
And by the time I knew it, y'all,
I've been bamboozled by Jesus.
(Laughter)
I got saved at 17.
I told him I was going to wait till 18,
and he swooped in at 17, and now:
33.
Still waiting; we are still waiting.
It's all good, though.
I don't mind the wait -
Thank you.
(Applause) (Cheers)

iw: 
ההמתנה לא מפריעה לי,
אך ההורים אומרים כבר משהו אחר.
(צחוק)
כשאני מזכירה להם את עצתם מהעבר,
הם אומרים לי:
"איבון, הזמן לא ממתין לאף אחד.
"את כבר לא פרגית צעירה.
את בשלה לנישואים."
'בשלה', כך הם קוראים לי, חבר'ה.
כאילו אני איזה מנגו.
(צחוק)
אהבתי גם את:
"איבון, היום הלכתי לכנסייה,
והדלקתי 5 נרות עבורך.
"כן, אולי ישו יבחין באחד מהם,
(צחוק)
"וישלח אלייך בעל."
אז מי צריך טינדר?
יש כאן אמא אפריקאית שמדליקה נרות.
טוב?
(צחוק)
אלה הם כללי המשחק.
אבל באמת -
ההמתנה לא מפריעה לי.
כי מה שמעניין כאן,
אני אולי צוחקת על כך הרבה,
אבל מה שההמתנה עושה,
היא מסלקת את הפושטקים.
רבים חושבים שההמתנה
מרחיקה ממני את נסיך החלומות,
אבל למעשה, מה שהיא עושה
הוא להרחיק ממני את החבר'ה האלה:

English: 
I don't mind the wait, but my parents
are singing a different tune now.
(Laughter)
When I remind them of their once
sound dating advice,
what I get back is:
"Yvonne, time waits for nobody.
You are no longer a spring chicken;
you are ripe for marriage."
'Ripe,' that's what they call me,
guys. Like I'm a mango.
(Laughter)
I love this other one:
"Yvonne, I went to church today,
and I lit five candles for you.
Yes, maybe Jesus will see one of them
(Laughter)
and send you a husband."
So who needs Tinder?
You've got a candle lighting African mama.
Okay.
(Laughter)
That's how this game works.
But I don't really -
I don't mind the wait.
Because, here's the thing about it,
like, I joke around a lot,
but what the wait does
is weed out the riff-raffs.
A lot of people think the wait is actually
keeping me from my prince charming,
but what the wait actually does
is keep me away from these dudes:

Portuguese: 
Não ligo de esperar, mas meus pais
cantam uma melodia diferente agora.
(Risos)
Quando os lembro de seu
único conselho amoroso,
eles me respondem:
"Yvonne, o tempo não espera por ninguém.
Você não é mais uma garotinha;
está madura para o casamento".
"Madura", é assim que eles me chamam,
gente. Como se fosse uma manga.
(Risos)
Eu adoro esta outra:
"Yvonne, fui à igreja hoje,
e acendi cinco velas para você.
Sim, talvez Jesus veja uma delas
(Risos)
e te mande um marido".
Quem precisa de Tinder?
Tenho uma mãe africana que acende velas.
Tudo bem. (Risos)
É assim que esse jogo funciona.
Mas eu realmente...
não me importo em esperar.
Porque, o negócio é esse,
tipo, eu brinco bastante,
mas o que a espera faz
é eliminar os "zoados".
Muita gente pensa que a espera
me afasta do meu príncipe encantado,
mas, na verdade, a espera
me afasta destes caras:

English: 
"But what do you mean by commitment,
though. Like, commitment commitment?"
Yeah, I don't have time
for the foolishness, y'all.
And so, for me, if you ask 
do I want to have sex? Of course I do!
Like today, like right now,
if you're here, like, let me know ...
(Laughter)
But that's just a short comfort, right?
And sometimes you've got to
sacrifice short term comforts
to get long-term
quality relationships that I want.
Yeah, that's my face,
that's the short term comfort look.
Like, it ain't always sexy,
y'all, but it is sexy.
And so ...
So for me right now at 33,
the wait is powerful,
it's discipline, it's focus,
it keeps the main thing
the main thing.
And I know some of you
are all listening, like,
"Boy, Yvonne, this sounds really good,
however, I'm not about this way
into marriage life.
Umm, so ... you got anything else for me?"
I do, I do. I'm not here trying
to sell to you, "Oh, wait for marriage."

Portuguese: 
"O que você quer dizer com compromisso?
Tipo, compromisso compromisso?"
Sim, eu não tenho tempo
para bobagem, gente.
E assim, pra mim, se você perguntar
se quero fazer sexo. Claro que eu quero.
Tipo hoje, agora mesmo,
se você está aqui, tipo, me avise...
(Risos)
Mas é só um pequeno conforto, certo?
Às vezes você tem que sacrificar
confortos de curto prazo
para obter uma relação
longa e de valor, que busco.
Sim, essa é minha cara
do conforto a curto prazo.
Tipo, nem sempre é sexy,
gente, mas é sexy.
E assim...
Então para mim agora com 33,
a espera é poderosa, é disciplina, é foco,
mantém a coisa principal;
a coisa principal.
E sei que alguns de vocês
estão ouvindo, tipo:
"Cara, Yvonne, isso parece muito bom,
entretanto, não estou por esse
caminho na vida conjugal.
Humm, então... tem algo a mais para mim?"
Eu tenho, tenho. Não estou aqui tentando
vender: "Oh, espere pelo casamento".

iw: 
"אבל מה זאת אומרת מחויבות?
מה, ממש מחויבות, מחויבות?"
באמת, אין לי זמן לשטויות האלה, חבר'ה.
אז אם תשאלו אותי
אם אני רוצה סקס? בטח שרוצה!
היום, ממש עכשיו,
אם אתה כאן, תודיע לי...
(צחוק)
אבל זוהי הנאה רגעית בלבד, נכון?
ולפעמים צריך להקריב הנאות קצרות-טווח,
כדי לזכות בקשר איכותי ארוך-טווח שאני רוצה.
כן, אלה הפנים שלי,
זהו המראה של הנאה קצרת-טווח.
זה לא תמיד סקסי,
אבל זה סקסי.
אז...
בשבילי בגיל 33,
ההמתנה היא עוצמתית,
זוהי משמעת, זהו ריכוז,
היא שומרת על חשיבותו של מה שחשוב.
ואני יודעת שחלקכם מקשיב לי וחושב,
"איבון, הכול נשמע טוב ויפה,
"אבל הדרך הזו לחתונה לא מדברת אליי.
"אז... יש לך משהו אחר להציע לי?"
יש, יש. לא באתי לכאן כדי
לשכנע אתכם "לחכות לחתונה."

Portuguese: 
A Yvonne de 17 anos
está aí com vocês, tipo:
"Por favor pare de falar agora".
Mas aqui vão algumas coisas
que sinto que você pode
esperar em um relacionamento.
Sinto que todo relacionamento tem coisas
importantes que você pode esperar.
Então, vou dar-lhes cinco coisas.
Primeira, espere pela pessoa
que o vê por quem você é,
e ama você independentemente.
Porque, aqui vai a realidade:
(Sussurro) todos temos problemas, gente.
Tipo, não acho que tive problemas,
sabe, olhe para mim. Ah!
Eu sou incrível...
(Risos)
Por cima, não tive, tipo, uma relação
de sete anos que me deixou um "caco"
bebendo vinho tinto numa quinta-feira,
e comendo pipoca, como Olivia Pope,
mas nós temos problemas.
E não foi assim até uma briga
com uma amiga minha que me falou
que tenho profundos problemas
de infância que eu nem sabia.
Este é o ponto sobre feridas:
você não sabe que tem
até elas serem cutucadas,
e então você percebe
que ela ainda está fresca.
Então, tive que cavar fundo,
cavar fundo e desenterrar algo feio.

English: 
My 17-year-old self
is right there with you, like,
"Please stop talking right now, please."
But here are some things
that I do feel that you
can wait for in a relationship.
I feel like every relationship has things
that are important that you can wait for.
And so, I'm going to give you five things.
One, wait on the person
who sees you for you
and loves you regardless.
Because here's the real:
(whispers) we've all got issues, y'all.
Like I don't think I had issues,
I mean, look at me. Ha!
I'm amazing ...
(Laughter)
On the surface, there was no, like,
seven-year relationship that left me hurt,
drinking red wine on a Thursday,
and eating popcorn like Olivia Pope,
but we have issues.
And it wasn't until a fight
with a friend of mine
that let me know, like,
I've got some some deep childhood issues
that I don't even know about.
That's the thing about wounds:
you don't know you have them
until they're scratched,
and then you realize
the scab is still fresh.
So, I had to dig deep, I had to dig deep,
and I had to unearth some ugly.

iw: 
אני בת ה-17 חושבת יחד איתכם,
"בבקשה אל תדברי יותר, בבקשה."
אך יש מספר דברים
שאני מרגישה שאפשר
לחכות להם ביחסים.
אני חושבת שבכל קשר יש דברים
שמאוד חשוב שתמתינו להם.
אז אציג בפניכם 5 דברים.
הראשון, המתינו למישהו
שיראה אתכם כפי שאתם באמת
ויאהב אתכם למרות הכול.
כיוון שזהו המצב:
(בלחש) לכולנו יש תסביכים, חבר'ה.
אני לא חושבת שלי יש תסביכים,
הרי תסתכלו עליי. הא!
אני מדהימה...
(צחוק)
על פני השטח, לא נראה שהייתי
בקשר של 7 שנים שהשאיר אותי פגועה,
ושותה יין אדום ביום חמישי,
וזוללת פופקורן כמו אוליביה פופ,
אבל יש לנו תסביכים.
ורק כשרבתי עם אחת החברות שלי
הבנתי פתאום,
שהיו לי תסביכי ילדות עמוקים
שלא ידעתי עליהם בכלל.
הדבר המעניין בפצעים:
שאתם לא מודעים שהם ישנם
עד שמגרדים אותם,
ואז אתם מבינים שהפצע עוד מדמם.
אז הייתי צריכה לחפור עמוק, עמוק,
ולגלות דברים מכוערים מאוד.

Portuguese: 
Mas acredito que tem alguém
disposto a ficar feio com você,
se jogar na lama e trabalhar na cura,
a cura dele ou dela,
na sua própria jornada para a cura.
Então vocês conseguem juntos.
Não julgue o processo de alguém,
porque você também está no processo.
Segundo, espere pela pessoa
que valoriza o que você valoriza.
Quando você me conhece,
sabe três coisas de cara:
eu adoro rir; adoro ser nigeriana;
meu povo, onde estão vocês?
(Vivas)
E eu amo Jesus.
Se passar um tempo a mais comigo,
você vai saber que me doo,
que conecto pessoas,
que sou encorajadora.
Tive um encontro uma vez com um cara,
que falou, tipo: "Yvonne,
acho que em todo relacionamento
precisamos de compromisso".
Certo, posso me comprometer
sobre o filme que veremos
no cinema, gente.
Posso me comprometer sobre
qual tipo de comida vamos comer hoje.
Mas, um valor fundamental..

English: 
But I believe that there is somebody
that is willing to get ugly with you,
down in the mud,
and work on getting healed,
his own healing or her own healing,
on your own journey to getting healed.
So y'all can do it together.
Don't judge somebody else's process
because you're in a process as well.
Number two, wait on the one
who sees value in what you value.
When you meet me,
you know three things off the bat:
I love to laugh; I love being Nigerian -
my people, where are you, there?
(Cheers)
and I love Jesus.
If you spent a bit
more time with me,
you know I'm a giver,
I'm a connector of people,
I'm an encourager.
I went on a date one time with this guy
who was, like, "Yvonne, I just think that,
in every relationship
we need to compromise."
Okay, I can compromise
on what movie we see
in the movie theater, y'all.
I can compromise on whether or not
we eat Chinese or Indian, today.
But a core value ...

iw: 
אבל אני מאמינה שישנו מישהו
שיהיה מוכן להתלכלך יחד איתך,
בתוך הבוץ,
ולעבוד על ריפוי,
על ריפוי עצמי שלו או שלה,
בתוך מסע הריפוי של עצמכם.
וכך תוכלו לעשות זאת יחד.
אל תשפטו את המסע של מישהו אחר,
כיוון שגם אתם נמצאים במסע הזה.
הדבר השני, המתינו למישהו
שמעריך את מה שאתם מעריכים.
כשנפגשים איתי,
ישר רואים עליי שלושה דברים:
אני אוהבת לצחוק, אוהבת להיות ניגרית -
איפה החבר'ה שלי, אתם שם?
(תרועות)
ואני אוהבת את ישו.
אם תבלו איתי עוד קצת זמן,
תדעו שאני אדם שאוהב לתת,
שאני מחברת בין אנשים,
שאני אדם תומך.
יצאתי פעם לדייט עם בחור
שאמר, "איבון, אני פשוט חושב,
"שבכל מערכת יחסים צריך להתפשר."
בסדר, אני יכולה להתפשר
על איזה סרט נלך לראות, חבר'ה.
אני יכולה להתפשר על
מה נאכל היום, סיני או הודי.
אבל על ערכי היסוד...

Portuguese: 
Sobre o que estamos falando?
Não estou falando sobre, tipo,
se o cara gosta de Snickers,
e eu de Crunch, não é isso.
Certo? Falo de valores fundamentais.
E olhei para ele e disse...
e claro que aquilo foi o papo furado
dele para tentar me levar para cama...
e eu disse: "Querido,
beleza se não valorizamos
as mesmas coisas;
só não vai acontecer".
Eu não fico brava se alguém
não gosta de mim por mim,
você apenas não é a pessoa para mim.
(Aplausos)
Terceiro, espere com propósito
e não com pavor.
Todos sabemos que a taxa
de divórcio nos EUA é de 50%,
então você joga a taxa
de retenção nas faculdades,
e, para as mulheres negras,
a taxa de prisão dos homens negros,
e blá, blá, blá, blá, blá...
Tudo baseado no pavor;
é tudo montado para você se sentir tipo;
"Você nunca vai conseguir, amor".
(Risos)
Mas eu não concordo com isso.
Porque, o que é o pavor?
E rapazes, vocês recebem isso também,
ouvem: "As garotas não são leais..."

iw: 
על מה אנחנו מדברים כאן?
חבר'ה, אני לא מדברת על כך
שהבחור אוהב חטיפי סניקרס
ואני אוהבת את בייב רות, ממש לא.
כן? אני מדברת על ערכי היסוד.
אז הסתכלתי עליו ואמרתי -
וכמובן שזה היה הנסיון שלו
לשכנע אותי לשכב איתו -
אמרתי, "חמוד,
"זה בסדר אם אנחנו
לא מעריכים את אותם הדברים,
"אנחנו פשוט לא נסתדר."
תבינו, אני לא כועסת
אם לא אוהבים אותי על מי שאני,
הוא פשוט לא האחד בשבילי.
(מחיאות)
הדבר השלישי,
המתינו עם כוונה ולא מתוך פחד.
כולנו יודעים שאחוז הגירושין
בארה"ב הוא 50%,
תוסיפו לכך את אחוז
הממשיכים ללמוד בקולג',
ואז תוסיפו נשים שחורות -
שיעורי הכליאה של גברים שחורים,
ובלה בלה בלה בלה...
הכול מלווה בפחד,
כל זה בא לגרום לכם להרגיש,
"בחיים לא תצליחו, חומד."
(צחוק)
אבל אני לא מאמינה בזה.
כי מה זה פחד?
וגברים, גם אתם חולקים את זה.
אומרים לכם: הנשים לא נאמנות...

English: 
What are we talking about?
I'm not talking about, like, y'all,
this dude likes Snickers bars
and I like Babe Ruth, that's not it.
Okay? I'm talking core values.
And I looked at him and I said-
and of course that was his sales pitch
to get me to try and sleep with him -
and I said, "Babe,
it's cool if we don't
value the same things;
we're just not gonna make it."
See, I don't get mad
if somebody doesn't like me for me,
you're just not the one for me.
(Applause)
Number three,
wait on purpose and not in fear.
We all know the divorce rate
in America is 50%,
and then you throw in
the retention rate in colleges,
and then black women -
the incarceration rate in black men,
and blah blah blah blah blah ...
It's all set in fear;
it's all set to make you feel like,
"You ain't never gonna make it, boo."
(Laughter)
But I don't subscribe to that.
Because, what is fear?
And guys, you guys get it too;
you guys get: these girls ain't loyal ....

Portuguese: 
Mesmo? Não somos?
Nós não somos?
Eu não concordo com o pavor
porque, o que é o pavor?
P.A.V.O.R Parece A Verdade Oculta no Real.
Isso é o que é, não é real.
Eu acredito na fé.
Fé é a certeza das coisas esperadas
e as evidências das coisas não vistas.
Um lida com o negativo,
a outra lida com o positivo.
Eu escolho olhar pelo positivo.
Isso é algo que Jay-Z diz: "Homens
e mulheres mentem, números não".
Legal. Você pode ter seus números.
Tenho um conjunto diferente
de números: 7,5 bilhões!
É a quantidade de pessoas
no planeta Terra.
Sete bilhões e meio.
Você quer dizer que, com 7,5 bilhões,
tem um cara... um cara tem
que ter meu nome nele.
Certo, eu não sei onde ele está.
Posso nem mesmo ter viajado
para o lugar de onde ele é.
Levantem as mãos: alguém aqui
já esteve em Wichita no Kansas?
Exato. Meu amor pode estar
em Wichita, Kansas.
(Risos)
Vocês sabem?

iw: 
באמת? לא נאמנות?
אנחנו לא נאמנות?
אני לא מאמינה בפחד
כי מה זה פחד?
פ.ח.ד זה פרי חשש דמיוני.
זה מה שזה: זה לא אמיתי.
אני מאמינה באמונה.
אמונה היא בטחון במה שמקווים לו
והוכחה לדברים שאינם נראים.
הראשון מתמקד בשלילי,
השני מתמקד בחיובי.
אני בוחרת לחפש את החיובי.
אז ג'יי זי אומר, "גברים משקרים,
נשים משקרות, מספרים לא משקרים."
טוב. תסתפק במספרים שלך.
לי יש מספרים מסוג אחר: 7.5 מיליארד!
זהו מספר האנשים על כדור הארץ.
7.5 מיליארד.
אתה רוצה להגיד שבתוך 7.5 מיליארד,
יש בחור אחד -
בחור אחד שאמור להיות שלי.
אני לא יודעת היכן הוא נמצא,
אולי עוד לא נסעתי בכלל
למקום שבו הוא נמצא.
הרימו יד: האם מישהו מכם
היה פעם בויצ'יטה, קנזס?
בדיוק. היפיוף שלי אולי בויצ'יטה, קנזס.
(צחוק)
מבינים?

English: 
Really? Are we not?
Are we not?
I don't subscribe to fear
because what is fear?
F.E.A.R. is False Evidence Appearing Real.
That's what that is; it's not real.
I believe in faith.
Faith is the assurance of things hoped for
and evidence of things not seen.
One deals in the negative,
another one deals in the positive.
I choose to look for the positive.
And here's the thing, Jay-Z says,
"Men lie, women lie, numbers don't."
That's cool. You can have your numbers;
I've got a different set
of numbers: 7.5 billion!
That's how many people
are on planet Earth.
7.5 billion.
You mean to tell me that with 7.5 billion,
there is one dude -
one dude has to have my name on him.
Okay, I don't know where he at;
I may not have even
traveled to where he's from.
Show of hands: has anybody
ever here been to Wichita, Kansas?
Exactly. My boo might be
in Wichita, Kansas.
(Laughter)
Y'all know?

English: 
And we're not even - 
we're just dealing with one state.
Has anyone been to every county in ...
in Pennsylvania, or in Maryland, or -
No!
So there's a whole wide world out there,
and we're not even
factoring in international -
Who's been to New Zealand?
Exactly!
Go to New Zealand.
Your boo may be
waiting for you in seat 32b;
that's all I'm trying to tell you.
So, tickets to Wichita,
Kansas, just went up.
You're welcome.
(Laughter)
Number four, wait on the one
who makes you a priority.
We've all heard it said
that people make time
for what's important to them,
and I believe that.
Late last year I was
getting to know this guy,
he started off really good; they all do.
(Laughter)
Started off really good,
I felt like we had
a really good connection,
and after a while,
I realized that my communication
was not getting reciprocated
at the same rate that I desired.

Portuguese: 
E nem estamos... estamos
falando de apenas um estado.
Alguém já esteve em cada condado na...
na Pensilvânia, ou em Maryland, ou...
Não!
Então tem todo um mundo lá fora,
e nem estamos falando
em escala internacional.
Nova Zelândia? Alguém?
Exato! Vá para a Nova Zelândia.
Seu amor pode estar esperando
por você no assento 32B;
é tudo o que estou tentando dizer.
Então, aqui, passagens
para Wichita, Kansas, só vai.
De nada.
(Risos)
Quarto, espere pela pessoa
que faça de você uma prioridade.
Todos já ouvimos isso,
que as pessoas tiram tempo
para o que importa a elas,
e eu acredito nisso.
Ano passado eu estava
começando a conhecer um cara,
ele começou muito bem; todos começam.
(Risos)
Começou muito bem, eu sentia
que tínhamos uma boa conexão,
e, depois de um tempo,
notei que minha comunicação
não estava sendo correspondida
da mesma maneira que eu desejava.

iw: 
ואנחנו עוד לא -
ואנחנו עוד עוסקים במדינה אחת.
האם הייתם בכל מדינות ארה"ב...
בפנסילבניה, או במרילנד, או -
לא!
אז יש לנו עולם שלם בחוץ,
ועוד לא דיברנו על חוץ לארץ -
מי היה בניו זילנד?
בדיוק!
סעו לניו זילנד.
האהוב שלכם אולי מחכה במושב 32b,
זה כל מה שאני מנסה לומר לכם.
אז הכרטיסים לויצ'יטה, קנזס עלו במחיר.
אין בעד מה.
(צחוק)
הדבר הרביעי, המתינו למישהו
שישים אתכם בראש סדר העדיפויות.
כולנו שמענו את האמירה
שאנשים מוצאים זמן עבור מה שחשוב להם,
ואני מאמינה בזה.
בסוף השנה שעברה הכרתי בחור,
והכול התחיל די טוב: תמיד מתחיל טוב.
(צחוק)
הכול התחיל די טוב,
הרגשתי שיש בינינו חיבור טוב,
ולאחר זמן מה,
הבנתי שנסיונות שלי לתקשר
לא נענו באותה המידה שציפתי שיענו.

English: 
So I take a step back because, again,
I don't have to beg anybody to like me,
because I like me.
So I just wanted to show you -
This was our last text message
because this is what I do,
I use you as a reference on my TEDTalk.
January 4th, he says,
"Can I call you later?"
I say, "Yeah, sure."
January 22nd?
(Laughter)
We're going to wait 18 days?
And then he says,
"It's not because of negligence,
because you've surely been on my mind."
I don't need anybody thinking about me.
I don't need anybody
thinking about me without actions.
Because here's what I think about.
I think about cleaning my room; I do.
Um, phew!
Here's what I don't do,
I don't clean my room.
Here's who's not impressed
with me thinking about them:
my dirty floors, okay?
So I don't, I don't -
I'm happy that you thought about me,
but without follow-through
we're not gonna make it.
And my angel says, when people
show you who they are, believe them.

Portuguese: 
Então, recuei porque, de novo,
não tenho que pedir que gostem de mim,
porque eu gosto de mim.
Só queria mostrar a vocês...
Esta foi nossa última mensagem
de texto, porque isso é o que faço,
uso como referência na minha palestra TED.
Em 4 de janeiro, ele diz:
"Posso te ligar depois?"
Eu digo: "Sim, claro".
Dia 22 de janeiro?
(Risos)
Vamos esperar 18 dias?
E então ele diz:
"Não foi por negligência, pois com certeza
estava pensando em você".
Não preciso que ninguém pense em mim.
Não preciso de ninguém
pensando em mim, sem ações.
Porque isso é o que eu penso.
Penso em limpar meu quarto, eu limpo.
Hum, ufa!
Isso é o que eu não faço,
não limpo o quarto.
Eis quem não está tocado
comigo pensando sobre eles:
meu chão sujo, certo?
Então eu não, não...
Estou feliz que você pensou em mim,
mas, sem dar sequência,
não vamos dar certo.
E meu anjo diz, quando as pessoas
te mostram quem são, acredite.

iw: 
אז לקחתי צעד אחורה, כי שוב,
אני לא חייבת להתחנן שיאהבו אותי,
כי אני אוהבת את עצמי.
אז אני רוצה להראות לכם -
זוהי הודעת הטקסט האחרונה שלנו,
כי זה מה אני עושה,
אני מנצלת אתכם לחוות דעת בהרצאת TED שלי.
4 לינואר, הוא כותב,
"אני יכול להתקשר מאוחר יותר?"
עניתי, "כן, בטח."
22 לינואר?
(צחוק)
אנחנו הולכים לחכות 18 ימים?
ואז הוא כותב,
"זה לא בא מתוך זלזול,
כי את בהחלט היית במחשבות שלי."
אני לא צריכה שמישהו יחשוב עליי.
אני לא צריכה שמישהו יחשוב עליי ללא מעשה.
כי זה מה שאני חושב עליו.
אני חושבת לנקות את החדר לי. כן.
אממ...
וזה מה שאני לא עושה,
אני לא מנקה את החדר שלי.
הנה מי שלא מתרשם מכך
שאני חושבת עליו:
הרצפה המלוכלכת שלי, טוב?
אז אני לא, אני לא -
אני שמחה שחשבת עליי,
אבל ללא מעשה משלים,
לא נתקדם לשום מקום.
המלאך השומר שלי אומר, כשמישהו
מראה לך מי הוא באמת, תאמיני לו.

Portuguese: 
Então, eu aprecio seu esforço,
mas claro que não sou
prioridade na sua vida,
e tudo bem, porque creio que tem alguém,
que me faz e me mantém sua prioridade
e traz equilíbrio na sua vida.
(Aplausos)
Além do mais, você está esperando
18 dias para me retornar,
mas seu Instagram está bombando!
(Risos)
Porque seu Snapchat está bombando,
mas o mesmo celular que você
usa pra dar curtida não serve para ligar?
Tudo bem, tudo bem, tudo bem.
(Risos)
Não desculpe o indesculpável;
você é prioridade e merece uma pessoa
que te ponha no topo de sua lista.
Agora, isso não deve ser
confundido com o ridículo,
querendo alguém para capitalizar
o tempo desse alguém.
Você deve ter equilíbrio
e ter uma vida balanceada.
Número cinco, espere pela pessoa
que atenda seus padrões.
Eis aqui uma coisa sobre padrões.
Eles são seus.
Você é quem decide
se são altos ou baixos...

iw: 
אז אני מעריכה את המאמצים שלך,
אבל די ברור שאני לא בסדר העדיפויות שלך,
וזה בסדר, כי אני מאמינה שנמצא שם מישהו
שיהפוך אותי וישמור עליי כעדיפות שלו
ויביא איזון אל החיים שלכם.
(מחיאות)
עוד משהו, אתה מחכה
18 ימים כדי לחזור אליי,
אבל האינסטגרם שלך מפוצץ!
(צחוק)
הסנאפצ'ט שלך בוער,
ועם אותו הנייד שבו אתה שם לייקים,
אתה לא יכול להתקשר אליי?
טוב, טוב, בסדר.
(צחוק)
בואו לא נתרץ משהו שאין לו תירוץ.
יש לכם עדיפות,
ואתם ראויים לכך שמישהו
ישים אתכם בראש הרשימה.
אבל אל תבלבלו בין זה
לבין התנהגות מגוכחת,
כמישהו רוצה להשתלט
על כל רגע מזמנו של האחר.
צריך שיהיה לכם איזון וחיים מלאים.
הדבר החמישי, המתינו למישהו
שעומד בסטנדרטים שלכם.
הנה משהו חשוב לגבי סטנדרטים.
הם שלכם.
ובידכם להציב אותם גבוה או נמוך -

English: 
So, I appreciate your effort,
but clearly I'm not
a priority in your life,
and that's cool because I believe
that there is somebody
who make me and keep me their priority
and bring balance in your life.
(Applause)
Furthermore, you're waiting
18 days to get back to me,
but your Instagram is poppin'!
(Laughter)
Why, your snapchat is lit,
but the same phone, you're double tapping,
and you can't call me?
Cool, cool, cool.
(Laughter)
So, let's not excuse unexcusable behavior;
you are a priority,
and you're worth somebody
who will put you at the top of their list.
Now, that's not to be mistaken
for being ridiculous,
and wanting somebody
to capitalize somebody's time.
You have to have balance
and have a well-rounded life yourself.
Number five, wait on the one
who meets your standards.
Here's the thing about standards.
They're yours.
They're yours to set as high or as low -

English: 
A lot of times when you hear single women,
you hear this said about them:
"Maybe you're still single
because your standards are way too high."
I don't know who talks like that,
but that's just in my mind.
(Laughter)
Or "Maybe you're sitting over here
because you're just so picky."
So?
Standards are yours
to set as high or as low -
and sometimes people
who can't meet your standards
feel the need to diminish them.
When I was in high school
and told my friends that my first time
I wanted rose petals and candles,
and they told me that
no one's gonna meet that.
Yeah, of course, no 15-year-old who's
unemployed and emotionally underdeveloped
is going to meet that,
(Laughter)
but I'm not looking
to be with a 15-year-old.
That's okay.
So you have to know your own standards,
and you have to set them for yourself.
I play a character named Molly,
on HBO, Insecure -
(Cheers)
thank you -
and she's been accused
of being real bad and boujee,

iw: 
הרבה פעמים שומעים נשים רווקות,
וזה מה שאומרים עליהן:
"אולי את עדיין רווקה
כי הסטנדרטים שלך גבוהים מדי."
לא יודעת מי מדבר ככה,
אבל כך זה נשמע בראש שלי.
(צחוק)
או "אולי את עוד במצב הזה
כי את בררנית מדי."
אז מה?
הסטנדרטים הם שלכם
ובידכם להציבם גבוה או נמוך -
ולפעמים אנשים שלא
עומדים בסטנדרטים שלכם
מרגישים צורך לזלזל בהם.
כשהייתי בתיכון
וסיפרתי לחברים שלי שבפעם הראשונה
אני רוצה שיהיו נרות ועלי ורדים,
והם אמרו לי שאף אחד לא יעשה את זה.
בטח, שום בחור בן-15
שהוא מובטל ולא מפותח רגשית
הולך לעמוד בדרישות האלה,
(צחוק)
אבל אני לא רוצה להיות עם בן-15.
זה בסדר.
אז צריך לדעת מה הם הסטנדרטים שלכם,
ואתם צריכים להציב אותם לעצמכם .
אני משחקת דמות בשם מולי,
בסדרת "לא בטוחה" ב-HBO -
(תרועות)
תודה לכם -
ומטיפים לה שהיא יהירה וקשוחה,

Portuguese: 
Muitas vezes, ouvimos as pessoas
dizendo às mulheres solteiras:
"Talvez você ainda esteja solteira
porque seus padrões são muito altos".
Não sei quem diz essas coisas,
mas isso está na minha mente.
(Risos)
Ou: "Talvez você esteja sentada aí
porque você escolhe demais".
E daí?
Os padrões são seus
e você os define como quiser;
e pessoas que não podem atender
a seus padrões tendem a diminuí-los.
Quando eu estava no ensino médio,
e disse às minhas amigas que na minha
primeira vez queria pétalas e velas,
elas disseram que ninguém
iria fazer aquilo.
Claro, ninguém com 15 anos desempregado
e emocionalmente subdesenvolvido,
irá fazer nada daquilo,
(Risos)
mas não estou procurando
alguém de 15 anos.
Está tudo bem.
Então você deve saber seus padrões,
e tem que estabelecê-los para você mesmo.
Faço uma personagem chamada Molly,
no HBO, na série Insecure...
(Vivas)
Obrigada...
Ela está sendo acusada
de ser muito má e burguesinha,

iw: 
שהיא טיפה שטחית,
כי היא אמרה שהיא לא רוצה להיות
עם דמות אחרת שלא הלכה לקולג'.
והיא עורכת-דין בחברה.
היי, תקשיבו, זוהי זכותם.
אני רק לא חושבת
שזה הוגן להגיד למישהו
שהוא לא יכול להחזיק בהעדפה מסויימת.
אם הוא יבחר לשנות
את ההעדפות שלו, זה גם בסדר.
זה כל היופי של החיים:
יש לנו בחירה.
אז כל עוד אתם מזמינים מתוך תפריט משהו
שביכולתכם להכין במרכיבים שבידכם,
תרגישו חופשי, חמודים.
אני רוצה להגיד,
אני לא יכולה לומר
כמה זמן תצטרכו להמתין
ליחסים מושלמים ונהדרים אלה,
אבל אני יכולה לומר
שההמתנה לא תאכזב אתכם.
זוכרים את אשת הדת שפגשתי
כשהיא הייתה בת 25?
אז, בגיל 34 היא התחתנה
עם הבחור הצעיר והיפה הזה,
הוא מטר תשעים, עם תואר שני,
עובד באמריקה התאגידית,

English: 
being accused of being a little shallow,
because she said she didn't want to be
with another character
who didn't go to college.
And she's a corporate attorney.
Hey, listen, that's your prerogative.
I just don't think
that it's fair to tell someone
that they can't have
the preferences that they want.
If they choose to have
different preferences, that's okay too.
That's the beauty of life:
we have choices.
So, as long as you're ordering off a menu
that you can also prepare
with your own ingredients,
knock yourself out, boo.
But what I will say is,
I can't tell you how long
you're gonna have to wait
for this majestic perfect relationship,
but I can tell you
that the wait does not disappoint.
Remember the minister that I met
when she was 25?
Well, at 34 she got married
to that handsome young man,
and he's 6 4', holds an MBA,
works in corporate America,

Portuguese: 
sendo acusada de ser um pouco superficial,
porque ela disse que não queria estar
com outro personagem
que não fez faculdade.
Ela é uma advogada corporativa.
Ei, escuta, essa é prerrogativa dela.
Eu acho que não é justo dizer a alguém,
que não pode ter
as preferências que quiser.
Se escolhem ter preferências
diferentes, está tudo bem.
Esta é a beleza da vida: temos escolhas.
Então, enquanto quiser um menu
que você pode preparar
com seus próprios ingredientes,
vá em frente, meu bem.
Mas o que vou dizer é:
não posso dizer quanto tempo
você terá que esperar
pelo perfeito e majestoso relacionamento,
mas posso dizer a você
que a espera não decepciona.
Lembra da ministra que conheci
quando ela tinha 25?
Bom, aos 34 ela se casou
com um lindo homem jovem,
ele tem 1,93 metros de altura, um MBA,
trabalha em uma corporação americana,

iw: 
יש להם שני תינוקות מקסימים,
ובגיל 40 היא מצפה לשלישי.
אז ההמתנה לא מאכזבת.
אז אתם, מי שלא תהיו,
שנאחזים כאן בתקווה,
אני אומרת קוו כנגד כל הסיכויים.
הלחמו במלחמה הטובה,
רוצו במרוץ, ושמרו על האמונה.
זה שווה את זה, וזה בהחלט סקסי.
(תרועות) (מחיאות)

English: 
they have two lovely babies,
and at 40, she's expecting her third.
So, the wait doesn't disappoint.
So whoever you are that's in here
that's holding on to hope,
I say hope against all hope.
And fight the good fight,
run the race, and keep the faith.
It is worth it, and it is sexy.
(Cheers) (Applause)

Portuguese: 
eles têm dois bebês adoráveis,
e aos 40, ela está esperando o terceiro.
A espera não decepciona.
Então quem quer que você seja,
que está aqui, se mantendo na esperança,
eu digo, tenha esperança
contra toda esperança.
E combata o bom combate,
acabe a carreira e guarde a fé.
Vale a pena e é sexy.
(Vivas) (Aplausos)
