hello darkness my old friend黑暗我亲爱的老朋友 I've come to talk with you again我再次过来和你闲聊 Because a vision softly creeping因为先前有个影子悄悄潜入 Left its seeds while I was sleeping趁我熟睡时埋下种子 And the vision that was planted但是这个种子已经 In my brain still remains深深植入我的脑海 Within the sound of silence寂静之音萦绕 In restless dreams I walked along在不安的梦中我独自游荡 Narrow streets of cobble stone铺满鹅卵石的街道狭窄幽长 Beneath the halo of a street lamp在一盏街灯的光晕下 I turned my collar to the cold and damp我竖起衣领来抵挡寒冷和潮湿 When my eyes were stabbed当我的眼睛被 By the flash of a neon light霓虹的光芒所遮住 That split the light光芒划破夜空 And touched the sound of silence轻轻的触碰寂寞之声 And in the naked light I saw透过这无瑕的光芒我看到 Ten thousand people maybe more千千万万的人们或许更多 People talking without speaking人们心中无声的交流 People hearing without listening人们罔闻 People writing songs that voices never share人们写着歌曲但却没有曲调 And no one dare没有敢 Disturb the sound of silence扰乱这寂静之声 'Fool' said I,'You do not know我说傻瓜你不会知道 Silence like a cancer grows静默就像癌一般生长 Hear my words that I might teach you聆听我的教诲或许我会告诉你 Take my arms that I might reach you'跟随我或许我将带你到达 But my words like silent raindrops fell我的话语就像寂静的夜空掉下的雨滴 And echoed in the walls of silence层层回荡于寂静之井 And the people bowed and prayed人们膜拜祈祷 To the neon god they made向自己塑造的霓虹神灵 And the sign flashed out its warning昭告牌上闪烁出警告 In the words that it was forming箴言成行若隐若现 And the signs said 'The words of the prophets标志上写着先贤们的箴言 are written on the subway walls都刻画在地铁的墙上 And tenement halls'以及公寓走廊上 Whispering in the sounds of silence在寂静之声中轻声耳语 |
