Original Lyrics
Translation in Japanese
verse
Hello darkness, my old friend
こんにちは、私の古い友達
I've come to talk with you again
私は再びあなたと話をするようになった
Because a vision softly creeping
ビジョンはやわらかく忍び寄る
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
私が寝ている間に種子を残した
And the vision that was planted in my brain
私の脳に植えられたビジョン
Still remains
まだ残っている
Within the sound of silence
沈黙の中で
verse
In restless dreams, I walked alone
不穏な夢の中で私は一人で歩いた
Narrow streets of cobblestone
石畳の狭い通り
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
街灯のヘロウニース
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
私は襟を冷たく湿らせてしまった
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
私の目がネオンライトのフラッシュで刺されたとき
That split the night
それは夜を分けた
And touched the sound of silence
沈黙の音に触れた
chorus
And in the naked light, I saw
裸の光の中で私は見た
Ten thousand people, maybe more
万人、多分もっと
People talking without speaking
話すことなく話す人
People hearing without listening
聞くことなく聞く人々
People writing songs that voices never shared
声が決して響くことのない曲を書く人
And no one dared
誰も敢えて
Disturb the sound of silence
の音を乱す
chorus
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
"ばか"、私は言った、あなたは知らない
Silence like a cancer grows
がんのような沈黙
Hear my words that I might teach you
私があなたに教えるかもしれない言葉を聞く
Take my arms that I might reach you"
私があなたに届くかもしれない武器を取る
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
サイレント雨滴のような私の言葉は落ちた
And echoed in the wells of silence
沈黙の井戸にこだました
verse
And the people bowed and prayed
人々は礼拝して祈った
To the neon god they made
彼らはモードをネオン神に
And the sign flashed out its warning
歌が警告を発した
In the words that it was forming
それが形成していたという言葉で
Then the sign said, "The words on the prophets are written on the subway walls
サインは言った、預言者の言葉は地下鉄の壁に書かれている
In tenement halls"
長屋で」
And whispered in the sound of silence
A 沈黙の音でささやいた
Writer(s): Paul Simon
