Can you help me to translate this binary code?

It is so painfully trivial you should be really able to do it by yourself. Start Windows calculator, convert binaries to hex numbers, start character table (accessories/system tools), see what are characters of a given code.

Alternatively, google for binary code converter. Much faster, but also less fun and you won't learn anything in the process.

At least the text - after being translated - doesn't suggest it is a homework. But the thread should definitely land in a homework forum.

Mechatron; could you not have waited until the 14th of February before posting your question.

I'm sorry that I wasn't more creative. I just think it's so fascinating that we can communicate with each other by other means than letters or Morse code. Have a nice day.
