Dalsz�veg:

Hello darkness, my old friend (Hell� s�t�ts�g, r�gi bar�tom)
I've come to talk with you again (J�ttem hogy �jra besz�lj�nk)
Because a vision softly creeping (Mert a l�tom�s finoman k�sz�)
Left its seeds while I was sleeping (Otthagyja a magjait, am�g alszom)
And the vision that was planted in my brain (�s a l�tom�s, ami az elm�mbe lett �ltetve)
Still remains (M�g mindig megmarad)
Within the sound of silence (A csend hangj�ban)

In restless dreams I walked alone (Nyughatatlan �lmokban egyed�l s�t�ltam)
Narrow streets of cobblestone (Keskeny macskak�ves utakon)
'Neath the halo of a street lamp (Egy utcai l�mpa f�nye alatt)
I turned my collar to the cold and damp (A hideg �s a p�ra ellen felhajtottam a gall�rom)
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light (Amikor a szemem �tsz�rta egy neonl�mpa f�nye)
That split the night (Ami �thas�totta az �jszak�t)
And touched the sound of silence (�s meg�rintett a cs�nd hangja)

And in the naked light I saw (�s a meztelen f�nyben l�ttam)
Ten thousand people maybe more (T�zezer embert, tal�n t�bbet)
People talking without speaking (Embereket besz�lgetni besz�d n�lk�l)
People hearing without listening (Embereket hallani meghallgat�s n�lk�l)
People writing songs that voices never shared (Embereket dalokat �rni, akik hangja sosem lett megosztva)
No one dared (Senki sem merte)
Disturb the sound of silence (Megzavarni a cs�nd hangj�t)

"Fools," said I, "you do not know (Bolondok, mondtam. Nem tudj�tok)
Silence like a cancer grows (A cs�nd n�, mint egy r�k)
Hear my words that I might teach you (Hallj�tok szavaim, amikkel tan�thatlak titeket)
Take my arms that I might reach you" (Fogj�tok karjaim, amikkel el�rhetlek titeket)
But my words like silent raindrops fell (De a szavaim mint cs�ndes es�cseppek hulltak)
And echoed in the wells of silence (�s visszhangoztak a cs�nd k�tjaiban)

And the people bowed and prayed (�s az emberek beh�doltak �s im�dkoztak)
To the neon god they made (A neon istenhez, amit teremtettek)
And the sign flashed out its warning (�s a jel kivet�tette a figyelmeztet�s�t)
In the words that it was forming (A szavakban, amik kialakultak)
And the sign said "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls (�s a jel azt mondta: A pr�f�t�k szavait a metr� falaira �rt�k)
And tenement halls (�s b�relt csarnokokba)
And whispered in the sound of silence (�s a cs�nd hangjaiban suttogt�k)
