Because of this forum I will be dismissed from school, fired from job, and finally divorced….

It's a day you'll remember though. :thumbsup:

From the guy who doesn't know what March 8th is?  :innocent:
Read a trip report from North Korea >>here<< - Read a trip report from South Korea, China and Hong Kong >>here<<

Look what the American media makes some people believe:
Putin often threatens to strike US with nuclear weapons.

This one sir, they let me stay up when I was young (Diamonds are Forever) since I'm a Bond fan:
 

TBH the age gap, looking forward, is a little 'creepy' there...

To non Former USSR people:  Who know's what they're singing about?

Fly away on the wings of the wind
To our native land
0, you, our native song.
To that place where we sang to you so freely,
Where things were so idyllic for you and me.
There under the sultry sky
The air is full of bliss.
There under the murmur of the sea
The hills slumber under the clouds.
There the sun shines so brightly,
Our native hills are flooded with light,
In the valleys splendid roses bloom,
Nightingales sing in the green forests
And the sweet grape grows.


"Нет в этом мире мельче, сволочнее и хамовитее особи, чем кацап. Рождённый в нацистской стране, вскормленный пропагандой нацизма, – этот ублюдок никогда не станет Человеком.

И за сохранение этого статуса Рассеей рядовой кацап готов пожертвовать собственной жизнью, жизнями своих родителей и детей, качеством жизни собственного народа. Воистину: кацапы – звери. Лютые, кровожадные, но... смертные". А. Солженицин

Тю, хотела, как лучше, а получила пенделя.
Хорошо, транслируй тогда, что я скажу тебе.
Звук у твоего видео некачественный и понять о чем поет этот хор девочек трудно даже для русскоговорящего, если не слышал эту оперу ранее.
Ну не знаю, может здесь одни уникумы собрались и они поймут о чем поет этот хор.
Хотя, если здесь вам объясняют смысл таких руссих слов, как: "уже", "как", "откуда", "куда", то да, конечно слова из этой оперы англоговорящими  будут переведены на английский с легкостью.

Mary,

first you're familiar with me and then formal. Where do we stand, now?

I can explain that Boridin wrote this opera, basing it on an old Kiev Rus  poem (The Tale of Igor's Campaign) and that he died before finishing it.

It was finished by Glazunov and Rimsky-Korsakov

The piece is called Dance of the Polovtsian Maidens - from Act II  - The maidens are singing -  comparing love to a flower that wilts during the heat of the day and revives at night.

Western folk might recognise it as "Stranger in Paradise" from the 1953 musical "Kismet"




I prefer the Borodin version  - but you knew that..
