【音乐相对论】孤单之夜的寂静之声(The sound of silence)
NJ:钱璟炜
《寂静之声The sound of silence》和《斯卡波罗集市》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。它的旋律直入心底,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。。。它的原唱是现代历史上最重要的民谣先驱之一Simon&Garfunkel,拥有一半冰岛血统,一半意大利血统Emiliana Torrini也翻唱过,她的版本听起来像是轻轻在你耳边吟唱,虽然她的声音并不是那么柔和温润,但是给人一种很舒服的感觉,自然、不做作,中国歌手姚斯婷翻唱的版本有着纯净的色彩,在寂静的夜里,静静等待明天。

歌词
Hello darkness, my old friend
你好 黑暗 我的老朋友
I've come to talk with you again
我又来和你交谈
Because a vision softly creeping
因为有一种幻觉正向悄悄地向我袭来
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
在我熟睡的时候留下了它的种子
And the vision that was planted in my brain
这种幻觉在我的脑海里生根发芽
Still remains
缠绕着我
Within the sound of silence
伴随着寂静的声音
In restless dreams I walked alone
在不安的梦幻中我独自行走
Narrow streets of cobblestone
狭窄的鹅卵石街道
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
在路灯的光环照耀下
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
我竖起衣领 抵御严寒和潮湿
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
一道耀眼的霓虹灯光刺入我的眼睛
That split the night
它划破夜空
And touched the sound of silence
触摸着寂静的声音
And in the naked light I saw
在炫目的灯光下 T
en thousand people, maybe more
我看见成千上万的人
People talking without speaking
人们说而不言
People hearing without listening
听而不闻
People writing songs that voices never share
人们创造歌曲却唱不出声来
And no one dare disturb the sound of silence
没有人敢打扰这寂静的声音
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
我说:“傻瓜,难道你不知道
Silence like a cancer grows”
寂静如同癌症蔓延”
Hear my words that I might teach you
听我的话,我才能教导你
Take my arms that I might reach to you
抓住我的手,我才能拯救(够到)你
But my words like silent as raindrops fell
但是我的话犹如雨滴飘落
And echoed in the wells of silence
在寂静的水井中回响
And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made.
人们向自己创造的霓虹之神 鞠躬 祈祷
And the sign flashed out its warning
神光中闪射出告诫的语句
And the words that it was forming
在字里行间指明
And the sign said:
它告诉人们
"The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
预言者的话都已写在地铁的墙上
and tenement halls
和房屋的大厅里
And whispered in the sound of silence."
在寂静的声音里低语
