这首歌，应该算是Garfunkel和SiMoN的成名作吧。翻到wiki的记录，在这首歌曲录制之后，因为效果不理想，两个人各分东西，后来这首歌因为机缘巧合被大众发现，两人才又重组乐队。
世事真难料。
Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with U 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 walk alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Neath the halo of a streetlamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked night I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fool," said I, "U do not know.
Silence like cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach U
Take my arms that I might reach U
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bow 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 sounds of silence"
