Hello darkness, my old friend,
" w2 j$ o/ V5 v7 G5 nIve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
% O# Y$ q3 I& ?  `! l: w" hLeft its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
( [7 \  A8 ^  x- F4 H5 y7 |Still remains
' F! M! T. x" q: C' w' WWithin the sound of silence.
9 ~, Y3 K9 n2 _0 l' t- C
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
4 ]9 l/ d0 {0 u, E, L8 O' |. G) n2 ?# Oneath the halo of a street lamp,
, J% j6 a; E2 \% h* `I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
3 c! o, t. k0 nA neon light
4 T; h7 h" h$ V. HThat split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

9 g! B7 I- Q: c2 m7 k) rAnd in the naked light I saw
3 C2 x; r" m) `/ J& \- iTen thousand people, maybe more.
+ x2 g1 {* F5 M2 ?People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
) H  h& Q0 u: v! f5 c$ H7 L/ gAnd no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.

Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
  S- o  i/ o8 b  y% ^- K! AHear my words that I might teach you,

But my words like silent raindrops fell,

% W" W8 K! ^& f" v+ nAnd the people bowed and prayed

% I" x0 P# S6 E; K8 ?- jAnd the signs said, the words of the prophets

And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
