Hello darkness, my old friend,
! J. v8 u* r$ s& \& K" QIve 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
- ~7 J( W  d$ [Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

Narrow streets of cobblestone,
* R  ^# j' q( w; O: _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
( d$ U% X/ o/ U5 }5 V+ q, l, h; n5 dThat split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw

People talking without speaking,

And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.
