歌词
你好 黑暗 我的老朋友
Hello darkness my old friend
我又来与你交谈
因为有一种幻觉正向我悄然袭来
I've come to talk with you again
熟睡之时，在我脑海中留下了它的种子
这幻觉在我的脑海里生根发芽
Because a vision softly creeping
久久不能散去
伴随着寂静之声
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
在不安的梦境中我独自行走在
狭窄的鹅卵石街道
And the vision that was planted in my brain
在路灯的光环照耀下
我用衣领来抵挡寒冷与湿气
Still remains
一道耀眼的霓虹灯光刺入我的眼睛
它划过了夜空
Within the sound of silence
打破了这寂静之声
在微弱的灯光之下
In restless dreams I walked alone
我看到了无尽的人们
人们言而无心
Narrow streets of cobblestone
人们听而不闻
人们在彼此间筑起隔阂
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
没人敢
打破这寂静之声
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
我说：“傻瓜，难道你不知道
寂静如同顽疾滋长”
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
聆听我的言语，或会让你受益几分
拉住我的臂膀，或会让你就此觉醒
That split the night
但我的言语就如无声的雨滴般落下
回响在寂静的井中
And touched the sound of silence
人们对自己所创造的
神明顶礼膜拜
And in the naked light I saw
神兆中闪射出告诫之语
在字里行间清楚指明
Ten thousand people maybe more
它告诉人们
先知者的话都已铭刻在地道之墙上
People talking without speaking
与破损的房屋中
亦在寂静之声中被低语
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
Fools said I you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said
Words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
Tenement halls
Whispered in the sounds of silence
