Hello darkness, my old friend,
' H2 G# O& h$ N' H! L8 L8 G9 MIve 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
* v# t4 j* h. {( t- {3 R! @, p* K1 PWithin the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
" T( p- T; O/ Jneath the halo of a street lamp,

And echoed
