Arti dan Terjemahan Lagu Simon & Garfunkel - The Sound Of Silence
Hello darkness, my old friend
Halo kegelapan, teman lamaku
I've come to talk with you again
I've come to talk with you again
Aku datang untuk berbicara lagi dengamu
Because a vision softly creeping
Because a vision softly creeping
Karena sebuah bayangan merangak secara perlahan
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
Meninggalkan benihnya ketika aku tertidur
And the vision that was planted in my brain
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Dan bayangan itu telah tertanam di dalam otakku
Still remains
Still remains
Masih tersisa
Within the sound of silence
Within the sound of silence
Dalam suara keheningan
In restless dreams I walked alone
Dalam mimpi yang gelisah aku berjalan sendirian
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Jalan jalan yang sempit dari batu kerikil
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
Dibawah lingkaran sebuah lampu jalanan
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
Aku mengunah kerah bajuku menjadi dingin dan berkabut
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
Saat mataku terrtusuk terusuk oleh cahaya lampu neom
That split the night
That split the night
Cahayanya membelah malam
And touched the sound of silence
And touched the sound of silence
Dan menyentuh suara dalam keheningan
And in the naked light I saw
Dan dalam cahaya yang terpapar aku melihat
Ten thousand people, maybe more
Ten thousand people, maybe more
Sepuluh ribu orang, atau lebih
People talking without speaking
People talking without speaking
Orang-orang mengatakan tanpa berbicara
People hearing without listening
People hearing without listening
Orang-orang mendengar tanpa mendengarkan
People writing songs that voices never share
People writing songs that voices never share
Orang-orang menulis lagu yang suaranya tidak pernah di bagikan
And no one dared
And no one dared
Dan tidak ada yang berani
Disturb the sound of silence
Disturb the sound of silence
Menggangu suara keheningan
"Fools" said I
"Orang-orang bodoh" aku berkata
"You do not know, silence like a cancer grows
"You do not know, silence like a cancer grows
"Kau tidak tahu, keheningan itu seperti kanker yang tumbuj
Hear my words that I might teach you
Hear my words that I might teach you
Dengarkan kata-kataku yang aku ajarkan padamu
Take my arms that I might reach you"
Take my arms that I might reach you"
Raih tangganku yang mungkin bisa manggapaimu"
But my words like silent raindrops fell
But my words like silent raindrops fell
Tapi kata-kataki seperti tetesan bisu yang jatuh
And echoed
Dan menggema
In the wells of silence
In the wells of silence
Dalam sumur keheningan
And the people bowed and prayed
Dan orang-orang membungkuk dan berdo'a
To the neon god they made
To the neon god they made
Kepada tuhan neon yang mereka buat
And the sign flashed out its warning
And the sign flashed out its warning
Dan tanda yang menyiarkan peringgatannya
In the words that it was forming
In the words that it was forming
Dalam kata-kata yang ia telah buat
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
Dan peringatan itu berkata, "kata-kata dari nabi-nabi
Are written on the subway walls
Are written on the subway walls
Tertulis dalam dinding kereta bawah tanah
And tenement halls
And tenement halls
Dan ruang rumah petak
And whispered in the sounds of silence"
And whispered in the sounds of silence"
Dan berbisik dengan suara keheningan."
