歌词
People talking without speaking
人们说而不言
Hello darkness, my old friend
你好 黑暗 的老朋友
I've come to talk with you again
又来和你交谈
Because a vision softly creeping
因为有一种幻觉正向悄悄地向 袭来
Left its seeds while i was sleeping
在 熟睡的时候留下了它的种子
And the vision that was planted in my brain
这种幻觉在 的脑海里生根发芽
Still remains
缠绕着
Within the sound of silence
伴随着寂静的声音
In restless dreams i walked alone
在不安的梦幻中 独自行走
Narrow streets of cobblestone
狭窄的鹅卵石街道
Neath the halo of a street lamp
在路灯的光环照耀下
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
竖起衣领 抵御严寒和潮湿
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
一道耀眼的霓虹灯光刺入 的眼睛
That split the night
它划破夜空
And touched the sound of silence
触摸着寂静的声音
And in the naked light i saw
在炫目的灯光下
Ten thousand people, maybe more
看见成千上万的人
People hearing without listening
听而不闻
People writing songs that voices never share
人们创造歌曲却唱不出声来
And no one dare disturb the sound of silence
没有人敢打扰这寂静的声音
"Fools" said i, "you do not know
说：“傻瓜，难道你不知道
Silence like a cancer grows”
寂静如同顽疾滋长”
Hear my words that i might teach you
听 对你说的有益的话
Take my arms that i might reach to you
拉住 伸给你的手
But my words like silent as raindrops fell
但是 的话犹如雨滴飘落
And echoed in the wells of silence
在寂静的水井中回响
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
人们向自己创造的霓虹之神鞠躬 祈祷
And the sign flashed out its warning
神光中闪射出告诫的语句
And the words that it was forming
在字里行间指明
And the sign said:
它告诉人们
"The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
预言者的话都已写在地铁的墙上
And tenement halls
和房屋的大厅里
And whispered in the sound of silence."
在寂静的声音里低语
