罗马教皇方济各遗嘱公布
双语君约 2 分钟梵蒂冈天主教教廷对外宣布，教皇方济各（Pope Francis）当地时间4月21日7时35分去世，享年88岁。梵蒂冈官方媒体梵蒂冈新闻（Vatican News）等多家外媒当天晚些时候公布了他的遗嘱内容，遗嘱落款日期为2022年6月29日。
Pope Francis died on Monday at the age of 88, according to multiple media outlets including AFP and Reuters, citing the Vatican.
教皇方济各在遗嘱开头表示，他希望自己的遗体安葬在位于罗马的圣玛利亚大殿（Papal Basilica of Saint Mary Major）。
As I sense the approaching twilight of my earthly life, and with firm hope in eternal life, I wish to set out my final wishes solely regarding the place of my burial.
当我感知尘世生命即将走到尽头，怀着对永生的坚定信念，仅就安葬之地一事，谨立此最后嘱托。
...I ask that my mortal remains rest — awaiting the day of the Resurrection — in the Papal Basilica of Saint Mary Major.
我祈愿将我尘世的遗体安放于圣玛利亚大殿之中，静待复活之日的来临。
教皇方济各
遗嘱还提到他对墓穴布置的期望。
The tomb should be in the ground; simple, without particular ornamentation, bearing only the inscription: Franciscus.
墓穴设于地下，简朴无华，不作特别装饰，仅以拉丁语刻上“方济各”的铭文。
遗嘱的最后，方济各写道：
The suffering that has marked the final part of my life, I offer to the Lord, for peace in the world and for fraternity among peoples.
我将生命最后阶段所经历的苦难，奉献于主，愿为世界带来和平，愿万民共享手足之情。
方济各本名豪尔赫·马里奥·贝戈利奥（Jorge Mario Bergoglio），1936年出生于阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯，2013年当选罗马教皇，是历史上首位来自拉丁美洲的教皇。
美国《华盛顿邮报》称，方济各任期内推行多项改革，如增强女性在教会中的决策权、教会成员“多元化”等。他还主张俭朴生活，摒弃高级神职人员的一些特权。此外，他还广泛关注气候变化、贫富差距等社会问题。
Pope Francis, who was elevated to the papacy in 2013, implemented numerous reforms, such as enhancing the decision‑making power of women in the church and diversifying church membership. He also advocated for a modest lifestyle, eschewing some privileges traditionally held by senior clergy. Moreover, he paid broad attention to social issues, including climate change and the wealth gap.
