Simon & Garfunkel - Sound Of Silence (1965)


Simon & Garfunkel - The Sound of Silence (from The Concert in Central Park)


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 streetlamp
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 share
No one dare
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 sounds of silence”

Tu,Perdonami di Romina Power

歌詞 我在想你 你已遠去,路途漫長 現在的你就像海市蜃樓 我重讀了你的那首詩 我已經讀過一千遍了 但現在獨自一人 Ed io sto pensando a te Sei lontano, è lungo il viaggio Sei ormai come un miraggio E rileggo quella tua poesia Che ho già letto mille volte Ma sola, ormai 我正在考慮這個想法 有尊嚴的生活 走向塵土飛揚的路 我責怪自己不成熟 在不知道如何管理的情況下 我和你的生活 Sto pensando a quell'idea Di una vita dignitosa A una strada polverosa E mi rimprovero l'immaturità Nel non saper gestire La mia vita con te

Alexander Lemtov: Lion of Love (Eurovision 2020 Finale) Love Thousands tried to tame me But I run free (ah) Until I saw you, and you saw me (ah) It's a jungle out there, so hold on tight (ah) You're about to see how I spend my night (ah) I'll be the king you wanted You'll be the queen I need And on, and on, and on, and on Let's get together I'm a lion lover And I hunt for love On the Savannah I will make you rise up to the sky above And when I roar You'll know I'm done Somewhere, someone tonight Will meet the lion of love Lion of love Lion of love I was happily rounding the shadows And bothered by flies (ah) Surrounded by so many that just didn't light my fire But then I turned 'round And I saw a gazelle With a flirtatious smile (ah) Swift as the wind She was gone But you won't get away this time (ah) I'll be the king you wanted You'll be the queen I need And on, and on, and on, and on Oh, let's get together I'm a lion lover A...

歌詞 櫻花飄落時我被遺忘的記憶 你的聲音回來了 春風吹不停 就像當年一樣 さくら舞い散る中に忘れた記憶と 君の声が戻ってくる 吹き止まない春の風 あの頃のままで 當你披散長髮在風中翩翩起舞 淡淡的香氣又回來了 我們都承諾 就像當年一樣 君が風に舞う髪かき分けた時の 淡い香り戻ってくる 二人約束した あの頃のままで 胡里拉 胡里拉 胡里拉 胡里拉 胡里拉 胡里拉 胡里拉
