You can translate it using one of following ways:

transaction SE63

directly from transaction SE38 (in the menu you have 'Translation')

If its a system type field like sy-datum then you can do one thing.

while giving the selection text check the chekbox of dictionary reference. it will automatically fetch the desired text.
