《The sound of silence》和《Scarborough Fair 》一样，是电影毕业生的插曲，一个在片头，一个在片尾。前一首1966年同名单曲获美国排行榜冠军；后一首1969年获奥斯卡最佳电影插曲奖。两首歌的风格差不多，都是那种经典的怀旧情怀。记得有人说过，它的旋律静静地、一尘不染的，轻柔的从耳边拂过。很容易让人想起雪后的黎明、原野的清风。黄昏时分坐在夕阳的余辉里，翻看着毕业时的同学照片，沉浸于一幕幕的校园往事，翻过一页页熙熙攘攘的毕业礼， --寂静之声--的优美旋律直入心底……

X|7l?{xW Paul Simon 是美国歌坛上的一个奇迹，常被冠以作曲家、歌唱家和吉它手的美誉。他的个人演唱以及和Art Garfunkel的重唱作品几乎都是出自他的手中。他的歌词首首都是优美的诗歌，他的歌曲旋律优美迷人........
1^^D :tt Hello darkness, my old friend;
I've come to talk with you 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.
ta., 4R&K In restless dreams I walked alone,
Narrow streets of cobblestone.
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night, and touched the sound of silence.
A'(F%0NF6 And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never shared.
And no one dared disturb the sound of silence.
gSYX @'Q! "Fools," said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might lead you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed in the wells of silence.
h18y?e7MU And the people bowed 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."

嗨！黑暗，我的老友,
我又来找你聊天了
只因有个幻影缓缓的爬行
趁我熟睡时洒下种籽
如今幻影已种植在我脑海里
和沉默之声共存。
Z@/5 ~p 在无尽的梦里，我一个人走在
圆石铺成的狭窄街道上
在街灯的光晕下
我竖起衣领抵挡湿冷的天气
闪烁的霓虹灯刺痛了我的眼睛
光芒分割了夜晚，也触动了沉默之声
!r 0P\ 在没有灯罩的灯光下
我看到了数以万计或者更多的人们
人们聊天而不谈心
用耳朵听而不用心聆听
人们写的歌，歌声里毫无感情分享
而且没有人敢去惊扰沉默之声
r/L]uSN &:K? -ac 傻瓜！我说：你不晓得
沉默像顽症一样蔓延
听听我教你的这些话話
握住我伸出的手。
但这些话像无声的雨落下
在沉默的井里发出回声
*7ro [ 人们对著自己造出的霓虹上帝膜拜、祈求
招牌上闪示著警告
在它显现的字句中
说著：先知的箴言
写在地下铁的墙壁和廉价公寓的门厅上
并且在沉默之声中低语
