完美的靜寂
我曉得哪裡有可以找到最完美的靜寂
海特羅斯的深藍
一英裡外，彩虹色的帆船，靜海無邊，
似乎將有交集，卻擦肩而過。
我曉得什末時間可以找到最完美的靜寂
塵土飛揚的俄亥俄路，一輪圓月，高掛天邊。
脫去襯衫，竟情享受陽光的熱吻
年少輕狂，六月暑天
我曉得什末是最完美的靜寂
當我們說愛已不再
只有雷電轟鳴的激吻
一切盡在不言不語。
我曉得為什末要是最完美的靜寂
是為了軟語甜夢
在她耳邊的軟語，燕燕輕盈，鶯鶯嬌軟
一個哥倫比亞清晨的甜夢，
我曉得最完美的靜寂是為何
是为了那些我们深爱的人，
为了保护他们不受我们的伤害，
可是，静寂的信任难以企及。
我晓得这静寂之可贵，
哥伦比亚闹市嘈杂中，无人知晓，
我却可以感觉。
她眼里的声音，水晶般的透明，
把我带到那彩虹帆船落处的静海，
似乎将有交集，
两个灵魂胶结在命运的铁轨，
只有那完美的静寂永存。
THE MOST PERFECT SILENCE
By Elliot McGucken
I know where the most perfect silence is,
Seen it in the wild blue off Hatteras,
A mile out, rainbowed sails in silent bliss,
Looked like they'd collide, but they safely passed.
I know when the most perfect silence is,
Down a dusty Ohio road, high noon,
No shirt on, being burned by the sun's kiss,
Sixteen, takin' my time-- it was still June.
I know what the most perfect silence is,
It's what we say when falling out of love,
It roars and thunders right through the kiss,
Says all that no words can ever speak of.
I know why the most perfect silence is,
It is there for the whisper to be born,
The whisper in her ear became the kiss,
Just a dream in DC early one morning.
I know who the perfect silence is for,
It is for the ones whom we love the best,
It is there to protect them from our core,
By the silent trust we all seek to rest.
And I know how rare that silence can be,
With everyone talkin', it's hard to hear,
But I know I felt it, on the streets of DC,
The sound in her eyes-- it was crystal clear.
And it brought back to mind the rainbowed sails,
And the way it looked like they would collide,
Like two souls set upon fate's iron rails,
But the most perfect silence never died.
