Sound Of Silence

Hello darkness, my old friend,
你好黑暗 我的老朋友
I've come to talk with you again,
我又来和你聊天了
Because a vision softly creeping,
因为有一种幻觉正悄然而至
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
趁我熟睡时埋下了它的种子
And the vision that was planted in my brain
这种幻觉根植于我的头脑
Still remains
萦绕盘旋
Within the sound of silence.
伴随着寂静的声音

辗转难眠的梦中我踽踽独行
In restless dreams I walked alone
在鹅卵石铺成的羊肠小径
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
踱步巷间，街灯昏黄
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
凛寒和洳湿的空气里我竖起衣领抵挡
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
当闪烁的霓虹灯刺入我眼帘
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
撕裂黑夜
That split the night
打破寂静
And touched the sound of silence.
人们叩首祈祷

向着他们自己创造出来的神明
And the people bowed and prayed
我说 愚蠢的人啊 你们不知道
To the neon god they made.
寂静如同顽疾潜滋暗长
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
炫目的灯光下
Silence like a cancer grows.
成千上万的人

说而不语
And in the naked light I saw
听而不闻
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
神迹中闪现灵训
People talking without speaking,
在字里行间指明
People hearing without listening,
先知之语

都已写在地下通道的墙上
And the sign flashed out its warning,
和公寓的走廊上
In the words that it was forming.
并在寂静中私语
, "The words of the prophets
我说 愚蠢的人啊 你们不知道
Are written on the subway walls
寂静如同顽疾潜滋暗长
And tenement halls."
聆听我对你说的话语
And whispered in the sounds of silence.
拉住我伸向你的手臂

"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."
