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”

張帝 - 國家 / Country (by Chang Di)

1981年,愛國歌曲 ====================== 作詞:孫儀,作曲:劉家昌 ====================== 沒有國哪裡會有家,是千古流傳的話; 多少歷史的教訓證明,失去國家多可怕。 炎黃子孫用血和汗,把民族的根紮下; 多少烈士獻出生命,培育出自由的花。 國家!國家!我愛的大中華; 四海之內的中國人,永遠在青天白日下。 ********************************************** 沒有國哪裡會有家,是萬世不變的話; 當你踏上了別人的土地,才知道更需要它。 在風雨中使我有信心,就是我的國家; 苦難中把我扶養長大,也是我的國家。 國家!國家!我愛的大中華; 四海之內的中國人,永遠在青天白日下。 國家!我愛中華。
