以下是安的粗浅理解......
寂静的声音
喂,黑暗,我的老朋友
我又来找你聊聊心声
由于视觉轻柔地爬行
在我睡着时留下了种子
植入我脑中的视觉
依然留存
在寂静的声音中。
在不安的梦中我独自前行
在窄窄的鹅卵石路中
路灯迷朦
我竖起衣领抵御着潮湿和寒冷
眼睛被划破黑夜
抚摸着寂静声音的
闪烁着的霓虹灯剌痛
在裸露的光线下我看见
芸芸众生
言之无物
充耳不闻
写着无从分享声音的歌
无人敢打扰
寂静的声音
"傻瓜“我说"你不知道
寂静如同癌症般滋生
听听我的话那或许会有教益
抓住我的手臂那或许会与我相通"
只是我的话像寂静的雨滴掉落
回响在寂静的井中
人们躬身祈祷
对着他们自己造的霓虹神
霓虹标志闪烁出警示
用的字眼是它独特形成
的标志"先知的话写在
地铁的墙上
和楼宇大厅
在寂静的声音中低吟"
总结成一首七律(平水韵 押八庚韵)
惟同至暗话心声,
梦里轻寒伴独行。
刺目霓虹嫌夜悄,
伤怀寂寞逐光明。
芸芸不解他人意,
落落徒聆自己情。
广袤大千神可在?
花灯作祷告寥生。
Lyrics:
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
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
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
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"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 reach you"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
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 sound of silence"
