My heart's in the Highlands, My heart is not here... В горах мое сердце В горах мое сердце... Доныне я там. По следу оленя лечу по скалам. Гоню я оленя, пугаю козу. В горах мое сердце, а сам я внизу. Прощай, моя родина! Север, прощай, Отечество славы и доблести край. По белому свету судьбою гоним, навеки останусь я сыном твоим! Прощайте вершины под кровлей снегов Прощайте, долины и скаты лугов, Прощайте, поникшие в бездну леса, Прощайте, потоков лесных голоса. \ В горах мое сердце... Доныне я там. По следу оленя лечу по скалам. Гоню я оленя, пугаю козу. В горах мое сердце, а сам я внизу! (Перевод С. Я. Mapшака

We'll take a cup of kidness yet, For auld lang syne. Each New Year's Day thousands of New Yorkers come to Times Square to celebrate New Year's coming and the Londoners come to Trafalgar Square. They all sing "Auld Lang Syne" and this song is still popular all over the world.
