王晰： Hello darkness my old friend
王晰： I've come to talk with you again
鞠红川： Because a vision softly creeping
鞠红川： Left its seeds while I was sleeping
李琦： And the vision that was planted in my brain
李琦： Still remains
合： Within the sound of silence
王晰： In restless dreams I walk alone
王晰： Narrow streets of cobble stone
王晰： Neath the halo of a street lamp
王晰： I turned my collar to the cold and damp
合： When my eyes were stabbled by the flash of a neon light
合： That split the night
王晰： And touched the sound of silence
李琦： And in the naked night I saw
李琦： Ten thousand people maybe more
李琦： People talking without how speaking
李琦： People hearing without how listening
李琦： People writing songs that voices never share
李琦： And no one dare
李琦： Disturb the sound of silence
鞠红川： Fool said I you do not know
鞠红川： Silence like a cancer grows
李琦/鞠红川： Hear my words that I might teach you
李琦/鞠红川： Take my arms that I might reach you
合： But my words like silent rain- drops fell
李琦： And echoed
合： In the wells of silence
合： And the people bow and prayed
合： To the neon god they made
李琦： And the sign flash out its warning
李琦/鞠红川： In the words that it was forming
李琦/鞠红川： And the sign said the words of the prophers
李琦/鞠红川： Are written the subway walls and tenement halls
李琦/鞠红川： And whispered in the sounds of silence
合： Hello darkness my old friend
