    моя ласточка = my swallow
    Какая разница, умереть богатым или бедным?

    Какой толк от богатства если ты не счастлив.

    I am pretty sure it is correct but I am not a native speaker.

    одна ласточка ещё не делает весны
    One swallow does not make spring

    Can you please provide the complete sentence/context?

    it's like "my pretty bird" or "my good girl" ..in some cases it could be adressed towards little girl or good milk cow , or maybe horse or even the car
