Auld Lang Syne

Auld Lang Syne, by Robert Burns.

Auld Lang Syne is traditionally sung after the hells have rung and everybody has been wished a Happy New Year.

Auld Lang Syne

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind ?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne !

Chorus:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

And surely ye'll be your pint stowp !
And surely I'll be mine!
And we'll tak a cup o'kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
Chorus:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

We twa hae run about the braes ,
And pou'd the gowans fine;
But we've wander'd mony a weary fit ,
Sin' auld lang syne.
Chorus:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

We twa hae paidl'd in the burn ,
Frae morning sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
Sin' auld lang syne.
Chorus:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

And there's a hand, my trusty fere !
And gie's a hand o' thine!
And we'll tak a right gude-willie waught ,
For auld lang syne.

Chorus:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
