Я подумала, что открытка с зимним пейзажем именно то, что нужно чтобы поздравить с Новым годом! Желаю тебе здоровья! 2020 пусть заберёт все тревоги. Исполнения желаний, любви и побольше улыбок. Очень надеюсь, что в Новом 2021 мы все вернёмся к нормальной жизни! 26.12.20 Ира.

I thought that a postcard with winter landscape is exactly what is necessary to congratulate with New Year. I wish you health. Let 2020 take away all the worries. [I wish] your dreams come true, [wish you] love and more smiles. I hope in the New 2021 we all return to normal life. December, 26, 2020. Ira

It’s Russian.

“Здравствуй, Макико!
Поздравляю тебя с Новым годом! Желаю тебе исполнения заветных желаний и искреннего счастья!
С наилучшими пожеланиями. Даша.”

Hello Makiko!
Happy New Year to you! I wish you the fulfillment of your cherished desires and sincere happiness!
Regards. Dasha.

Is there a Russian website to order CD?

This is a very little known group. I heard about it for the first time and googled what it is. CD can hardly be bought. Rather, you will find them on YouTube or another similar service.

Oh, we have a tale for kids in Russia, “Doctor Aibolit”, the doctor’s name is translated like “Oh, it hurts”. And it is the rephrased final poem from this tale: "Everybody will be cured by kind doctor AiCOVID " (not Aibolit, but AiCOVID, play on words).

By the way, “Doctor Aibolit” is an russian adaptation (in the form of a poem) of “Doctor Doolitle”. It’s quite short poem, not so long as “Doctor Doolitle”. The poem was created by Chukovsky, and, well, It’s a trilogy: “Barmaley” (the gangster :-)), “Aibolit”, and “Defeat the Barmaley!”. All those poems was created in early 19xx, like 1925-1942.

Thank you for this information, StaC. I see the play with words and changed letters.
I’m not sure if I understand it right: is the text in the card as translated: “Everybody will be cured by doctor AiCOVID” ?

in Russian it is a word play and it is very funny
it can hardly be translated into other languages
