The Sound Of Silence

Hello darkness my old friend
夜色安谧，我的老朋友
I've come to talk with you again
我又一次来跟你谈心
Because a vision softly creeping
因为梦幻静静地蔓延
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
遗落了它的种子，
And the vision that was planted in my brain
那梦幻已深深植根于我的心底
Still remains with the sound of silence
并依然属于那沉默的声音
In restless dreams I walk alone
我从不安的梦中惊醒，独自彷徨
Narrow streets of cobble stone
彷徨在铺满鹅卵石的小街旁
Beneath the hallo of a street lamp
街灯暖暖地洒在身上
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
我将一切交给夜色清凉
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
当我的双眼被霓虹灯迷惑
That split the night
感觉就像是夜色被划破
And touched the sound of silence
以及对沉默声音的触摸
And in the naked night I saw ten thousand people may be more
在这无助的夜里，我似乎看见了好多人
People talking without speaking people hearing without listening
他们不交谈，不聆听
People writing songs that voices never share
他们写歌却不彼此分享
no one dare disturb the sound of silence
他们没人敢打破沉默
"Fool" said I "you do not know“
愚蠢！”我诅咒，“你们不懂得，
Silence like a cancer grows
沉默就像是癌细胞般肆无忌惮地蔓延
Hear my words that I might teach you
听我的话也许我会教给你
Take my arms that I might reach you.But my words like silent rain-drops fell"
挽我的手也许我会影响你”可我的声音就像是沉默的雨滴
And echoed in the wells of silence
掉进深不可测的井里
And the people bow and pray
人们继续躬身膜拜
to the neon God they made
膜拜他们创造的上帝
And the sign flash out its warning
神迹昭示着警示
In the words that it was forming
并将它公诸于世
And the sings said "The words of the prophers are.written the subway walls and tenement halls
于是歌中唱道“神的预言随处可见"甚至出现在你的梦魇”
And whispered in the sounds of silence
只剩下沉默的声音，在空中呢喃，沉默……
