Hello darkness, my old friend 黑暗中,你我老朋友, 00:03
I've come to talk with you again 我又来到这里找你对话。 00:07

Left its seeds while I was sleeping 在我沉睡时播下种子。 00:16
And the vision that was planted in my brain 那在我脑海中植入的幻想, 00:21
Still remains 仍然留存, 00:27
Within the sound of silence 在沉默的声音里。 00:30
In restless dreams, I walked alone 在不安的梦中,我独自漫步, 00:37
Narrow streets of cobblestone 狭窄的鹅卵石街道, 00:41
'Neath the halo of a streetlamp 在路灯的光晕下, 00:46
I turned my collar to the cold and damp 我把衣领转向寒冷湿润的空气。 00:50
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light 当我眼睛被霓虹灯一闪刺痛, 00:55

Ten thousand people, maybe more 一万多人,也许更多, 01:16
People talking without speaking 人们说话却没有声音, 01:20
People hearing without listening 人们听见却不去聆听, 01:24
People writing songs that voices never shared 有人写歌,却无人分享, 01:29
No one dared 没人敢打扰那沉默的声音。 01:37

Silence like a cancer grows 听我言教你们, 01:50
Hear my words that I might teach you 接我双臂,愿你们触及。” 01:55
Take my arms that I might reach you" 但我的话如无声的雨滴落下, 01:59
But my words like silent raindrops fell 在沉默之井中回响。 02:03
And echoed in the wells of silence 人们跪下祈祷, 02:11
向他们制造的霓虹神祇, 02:18
And the people bowed and prayed 那标志闪烁出警告, 02:22
To the neon god they made 用它构成的话语, 02:25
And the sign flashed out its warning 那标志说:“先知的言语写在地铁墙上, 02:29
In the words that it was forming 在贫民区的大厅里。” 02:33
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls 沉吟在沉默的声音中。 02:38
In tenement halls" 在沉默的回响里低语。 02:45

Lyrics:

[English]
[中文]
Hello darkness, my old friend
黑暗中,你我老朋友,
I've come to talk with you again
我又来到这里找你对话。
Because a vision softly creeping
因为一个温柔潜入的幻影,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
在我沉睡时播下种子。
And the vision that was planted in my brain
那在我脑海中植入的幻想,
Still remains
仍然留存,
Within the sound of silence
在沉默的声音里。
In restless dreams, I walked alone
在不安的梦中,我独自漫步,
Narrow streets of cobblestone
狭窄的鹅卵石街道,
'Neath the halo of a streetlamp
在路灯的光晕下,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
我把衣领转向寒冷湿润的空气。
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
当我眼睛被霓虹灯一闪刺痛,
That split the night
划破夜晚,
And touched the sound of silence
触及那沉默的声音。
And in the naked light, I saw
在裸露的灯光下,我看见,
Ten thousand people, maybe more
一万多人,也许更多,
People talking without speaking
人们说话却没有声音,
People hearing without listening
人们听见却不去聆听,
People writing songs that voices never shared
有人写歌,却无人分享,
No one dared
没人敢打扰那沉默的声音。
Disturb the sound of silence
我曾说:“愚蠢的人啊,你们不知道,
"Fools", said I, "You do not know
沉默如癌,逐渐蔓延。
Silence like a cancer grows
听我言教你们,
Hear my words that I might teach you
接我双臂,愿你们触及。”
Take my arms that I might reach you"
但我的话如无声的雨滴落下,
But my words like silent raindrops fell
在沉默之井中回响。
And echoed in the wells of silence
人们跪下祈祷,
...
向他们制造的霓虹神祇,
And the people bowed and prayed
那标志闪烁出警告,
To the neon god they made
用它构成的话语,
And the sign flashed out its warning
那标志说:“先知的言语写在地铁墙上,
In the words that it was forming
在贫民区的大厅里。”
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
沉吟在沉默的声音中。
In tenement halls"
在沉默的回响里低语。
...
...
And whispered in the sounds of silence
And whispered in the sounds of silence
...
...

Grammar:

  • Hello darkness, my old friend

    ➔ 同位语

    "my old friend" 是同位语,重新命名或进一步描述 "darkness"。 它为抽象概念增加了一层亲密感和拟人化。

  • Left its seeds while I was sleeping

    ➔ 过去进行时 (was sleeping) 在过去简单时语境中使用

    "was sleeping" 的使用突出了睡眠状态的持续时间,强调了在视觉扎根期间的脆弱性和无意识。 它暗示了一个渐进的过程。

  • In restless dreams, I walked alone

    ➔ 形容词顺序 (restless dreams)

    ➔ 形容词 "restless" 位于名词 "dreams" 之前,用于描述梦境的质量。 顺序遵循标准的英语形容词-名词结构。

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

    ➔ 被动语态 ("were stabbed")

    ➔ 被动语态用于强调对主语(“my eyes”)执行的行为,而不是执行该行为的施动者(霓虹灯)。 这创造了一个生动而戏剧性的形象。

  • People talking without speaking

    ➔ 动名词/分词 (“talking”, “speaking”)

    ➔ “talking” 和 “speaking” 是现在分词,用作动名词,描述人们的*方式*。“Without speaking” 修饰 “talking”,表示对话缺乏实质内容。

  • Hear my words that I might teach you

    ➔ 虚拟语气 (might)

    "might" 表示可能性或不太直接的目的/原因。 在这里,它缓和了意图,暗示了一种希望或教导的愿望,而不是一种确定性。

  • But my words like silent raindrops fell

    ➔ 明喻 ("like silent raindrops")

    ➔ 明喻将说话者的话比作寂静的雨滴。 它强调了它们的无效性和缺乏影响力,因为雨滴是温和且容易被吸收的。

  • And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made

    ➔ 关系从句 ("they made")

    "they made" 是一个限定性(或限制性)关系从句,提供必要的的信息,以确定所指的是哪一个霓虹灯神。 这是 *他们* 特别创造的霓虹灯神。
