Текст песни
(Music begins with the deep, celebratory chime of the Kremlin clock's Spasskaya Tower melody, blending into a modern, upbeat folk-rock arrangement with driving drums, a warm accordion, and a lively fiddle.)
(Verse 1 - English & Russian)
The snow is falling soft on Красная площадь(Red Square)
A million sparkling lights,a frozen sparkle
From Tverskaya to the old Арбат street's roar
We're writing all our worries on the old year's door.
И старый год уходит, спасибо за всё(And the old year leaves, thanks for everything)
Теперь внутри нас только лето и тёплый мёд(Now inside us, only summer and warm honey)
(Pre-Chorus - Spanish, rhythmic handclaps)
Y llenamos las copas hasta el brillar(And we fill the glasses until they shine)
Con champaña ruso, con tanto amor para dar(With Russian champagne, with so much love to give)
La noche es fría, pero el alma, no(The night is cold, but not the soul)
¡Moscú nos canta, vamos a contestar!(Moscow sings to us, let's answer!)
(Chorus - Full Band, Anthemic)
So let it ring out, let the bells all swing out!
С Новым Годом, Москва! (Happy New Year, Moscow!)
A laugh, a tear, a brand new start!
¡Salud, amor! ¡Con todo el corazón! (Cheers, love! With all the heart!)
From the River Moskva, to a brand new sun!
Sláinte! За жизнь! (Cheers! To life!) The old year is done!
(Verse 2 - Irish folk inflection, fiddle takes the lead)
And if a breeze from Galway found its way tonight
Through the winter stars and the pale moonlight
It would hear the same hope in every cheer and call
As we stand together,waitin' for the clock to fall.
For the story's never over,it's a river runnin' free,
And it brings us all together here,from every land and sea.
(Instrumental Bridge - A celebratory fusion: a traditional Russian "калинка" (kalinka) melody on the accordion intertwines with a fiery Spanish guitar flourish and a hopping Irish fiddle reel. It builds and builds.)
(Chorus - Even bigger, crowd vocals)
So let it ring out, let the bells all swing out!
С Новым Годом, Москва! (Happy New Year, Moscow!)
A laugh, a tear, a brand new start!
¡Salud, amor! ¡Con todo el corazón! (Cheers, love! With all the heart!)
From the River Moskva, to a brand new sun!
Sláinte! За жизнь! (Cheers! To life!) The old year is done!
(Breakdown - Intimate, just accordion and vocals)
Пять... четыре...(Five... four...)
Trí... a dó...(Three... two... - Irish)
¡Uno! ¡Feliz Año! (One! Happy New Year!)
(Massive cheer, confetti cannon sound)
(Outro - Ecstatic, polyglot celebration)
С НОВЫМ ГОДОМ! (HAPPY NEW YEAR!)
ЗДОРОВЬЯ, СЧАСТЬЯ, ЛЮБВИ! (HEALTH, HAPPINESS, LOVE!)
¡Por la vida! ¡Que brille tu camino! (For life! May your path shine!)
May your days be bright and your friends be near!
Sláinte mhór! (Great health! - Irish) Всё будет хорошо! (Everything will be good!)
(Music swells into a final, joyous, ringing chord that echoes like the last stroke of midnight.)
