经典老歌 音质差了点後半段还有杂音但很有味道

Watchmen的OST 不过我比较喜欢不插电版

葛利果圣歌合唱团 (你不要以为把影片转黑白就很搭!)
同样是《毕业生》的插曲这首歌反映着60年代的美国社会,当时美国经历了越战、
种族歧视问题、约翰甘乃迪被暗杀等社会动乱,Paul Simon用这首
"The Sound of Slience"沉默已经变成了一种声音的反差来暗示当时的社会大众不敢面对
,只会保持沉默,并用霓虹灯来批判崇拜物质偶像。
开头的称黑暗为自己的老友有暗指自己孤独,愤世忌俗的意味。
Simon & Garfunkel - The Sound of Silence
Hello darkness, my old friend
嗨,黑暗,我的老友
I've come to talk with you again
我又一次来找你聊天
Because a vision softly creeping
因为有个幻象悄然来临
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
在我熟睡时留下了它的种子
And the vision that was planted in my brain
而这深植在我脑海中的幻象
Still remains
依然遗留在
Whihin the sound of silence
这片寂静之声中
In restless dreams I walked alone
在不安的梦境中我独自行走在
Narrow streets of cobblestone
扑满鹅卵石的狭长街道上
Neath the halo of a street lamp
笼罩於街灯的光晕里
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
我竖起衣领以抵御湿冷
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
当我的眼睛被闪烁的霓虹灯刺痛时
That split the night
它同时也划破了夜空
And touched the sound of silence
并触动了这片寂静之声
And in the naked light I saw
而在强光里我看见
Ten thousand people maybe more
成千上万的人们或更多
People talking without speaking
人们无语的诉说着
People hearing without listening
人们无声的倾听着
People writing songs that the voices never share
人们写着一些永不被传唱的歌谣
And no one dare
而谁也不敢
Disturb the sound of silence
打破这片寂静之声
Fools said I, you do not know
"傻子" 我说,"你们都不了解
Silence like a cancer grows
寂静就像是蔓延的癌
Hear my words that I might teach you
聆听我的话语让我教导你
Take my arms that I might reach you
拉住我得双手让我引导你"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
但我说的话却像寂静无声的雨点般落下
And echoed in the wells of silence
并徒然回响于寂静的井底
And the people bowed and prayed
接着人们开始屈身祷告
To the neon God they made
向他们用霓虹灯造出来的神
And the sign flashed out its warning
而那神蹟以闪烁道出它的警语
In the words that it was forming
就在那逐渐形成的字句中
And the signs said, the words of prophets
它告诉人们,先知的话语
And written on subway walls
都已写在地铁的墙壁
And tenement halls
和廉价公寓的大厅中
And whisperd in the sounds of silence
并在这寂静之声中喃喃低语
歌词写得很有诗意,真的夭寿难翻!
看过很多翻译的意思不太一样的
所以自己修正了一下
英文国文造诣都没有很高 加减看
有错欢迎指正 谢谢<(_ _)>
