歌词与翻译

[中文]

你好，黑暗，我的老友

我又来找你谈心了

因为一个幻象悄悄潜入

在我熟睡时播下了种子

而那个种在我脑海中的幻象

依然在寂静之声中盘旋

在不安的梦中我独自行走

走在狭窄的鹅卵石街道上

在街灯的光晕之下

我翻起衣领抵御寒冷与潮湿

直到一道霓虹灯的光芒刺入我的眼帘

撕裂了黑夜

触碰到了寂静之声

...

在裸露的灯光下我看到

上万人，或许更多

人们在交谈，却并非在沟通

人们在听见，却并非在倾听

人们写着从未被唱响的歌

没有人敢惊扰这寂静之声

“傻瓜们，”我说，“你们不知道

沉默会像癌症一样生长

听我的话，让我引导你们

牵我的手，让我触及你们”

但我的话语像无声的雨滴落下

在寂静的深井中回荡

人们鞠躬祈祷

对着他们创造的霓虹之神

霓虹灯闪烁着警告

用它拼凑出的文字

灯牌上写着：“先知的箴言

写在地铁的墙上，写在廉租房的走廊

在寂静之声中低语”

...

[英语]

Hello darkness, my old friend

I've come to talk with you again

Because a vision softly creeping

Left its seeds while I was sleeping

And the vision that was planted in my brain

Still remains within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone

Narrow streets of cobblestone

'Neath the halo of a street lamp

I turned my collar to the cold and damp

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light

That split the night

And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw

Ten thousand people, maybe more

People talking without speaking

People hearing without listening

People writing songs that voices never shared

And 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, "The words of the prophets

Are written on the subway walls, and tenement halls

And whispered in the sound of silence"
