Roman,

I'm afraid I can't make out what this might be.

Is it a poem by Robert Burns? Perhaps if you can point me at the Russian
version I'll recognise it.

Roman, Sandy,

I wonder if it's "Auld Lang Syne," which in many translations has a
farewell slant.

By the way, there is a Russian online link list for Robert Burns:
