Вольный перевод на русский нашего друга из Финляндии:
Тот город наводит на воспоминания.
Я видел эти прекрасные парки, улицы, каналы...
С утра до вечера любовался ими
Я вспоминаю Ленинград... Ленинград...
Я отвезу тебя туда и покажу тебе Ленинград... Ленинград...
Мы будем ходить по набережным вдвоем,
Вечерами на закате любоваться Невскими волнами.
Для нас будет звучать музыка.
И весь город будет петь для нас.
Рядышком, обнявшись, будем вместе любоваться Ленинградoм
И, расставаясь, будем помнить... Вспоминать, вспоминать, вспоминать...
Ленинград... Ленинград... Ленинград...
