歌词大意：
Hello darkness my old friend
嘿黑夜啊我的老友
I've come to talk with U again
我又来找你聊天了
Because a vision softly creeping
因为有个幻影轻轻爬进来
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
趁我熟睡时暗暗播下了种子
And the vision that was planted in my brain
使这个幻影深植入我脑海中
Still remains
萦绕盘旋不去
Within the sound of silence
在寂静无声的此刻
In restless dreams I walk alone
在无数不平静的梦中我茕茕独行
Narrow streets of cobble stone
行走在鹅卵石铺成狭窄街道上
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
头顶上街灯的光晕将我笼罩
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
我竖起衣领以抗御这湿冷的夜
When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light
当我的眼睛为刺眼的霓虹灯闪烁所迷时
That split the night
霓虹灯的闪烁也划破了夜空
And touched the sound of silence
