«A Story of One Song”

        As well as making original compositions, Burns also collected folk songs from across Scotland, often revising or adapting them. The most popular of them is “Auld Lang Syne”. “Auld Lang Syne” was written in 1788.

        Robert Burns wrote it in Scottish dialect and set to a traditional folk Scottish melody.

Auld Lang Syne

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

And never brought to mind?

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

And days o’ auld lang syne?

          For auld lang syne, my dear,

          For auld lang syne.

          We’ll tak’ a cup o’kindness yet

          For auld lang syne.

And here’s a hand, my trusty friend,

And gie’s a hand o’ thine,

We’ll tak’ a cup o’kindness yet

For auld lang syne.

        Robert Burn’s poems were translated into almost every language. The best translations were made by S.Marshak. Thanks to Marshak's translations we know and love Robert Burns.

Старая дружба

Забыть ли старую любовь

И не грустить о ней?

Забыть ли старую любовь

И дружбу прежних дней?

                 За дружбу старую –

                 До дна!

                 За счастье прежних дней!

                 С тобой мы выпьем, старина,

                 За счастье прежних дней.

И вот с тобой сошлись мы вновь,

Твоя рука – в моей,

Я пью за старую любовь,

За дружбу прежних дней.

                 За дружбу старую –

                 До дна!

                 За счастье прежних дней!

                 С тобой мы выпьем, старина,

                 За счастье прежних дней.

                                                              Перевод С.Маршак

        We know that the Scottish national anthem "Auld Lang Syne" composed by Robert Burns is often sung at parties or meetings of friends all over the world. The song inspired one of the students of our school to write her own translation of this poem.

Старая дружба

Скажи мне, друг, сколь дороги

Прошедшие года?

Быть может, стоит их забыть,

Забыть их навсегда?

               За времена былые,

               За годы удалые,

               Хорошие, плохие,

               Поднимем чашу, друг.

Вот, друг, тебе моя рука –

Пожми ее скорей.

И выпьем чашу мы до дна

За славу прошлых дней!
