Auld Lang Syne
            Robert Burns
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days of 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' ha'e run aboot the braes,
And pu'd the gowans fine;
But we've wander'd mony a weary foot
Sin' Auld Lang Syne.

Chorus

We twa' ha'e sported i' the burn
Frae mornin' sun till dine,
But seas between us weary foot
Sin Auld Lang Syne.

Chorus

And here's a hand, my trusty frien'
And gie's a hand o' thine;
We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet
For Auld Lang Syne.

Chorus
