Auld Lang Syne Lyrics
- Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
- and never brought to mind?
- Should auld acquaintance be forgot
- and days of auld lang syne?
- For auld lang syne, my dear,
- For auld lang syne,
- We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
- For auld lang syne
- We twa hae run aboot the braes
- And pou'd the gowans fine;
- we've wander'd mony a weary foot
- Sin' auld lang syne
- We two hae paidled i' the burn,
- Frae mornin' sun till dine;
- But seas between us braid hae roar'd
- Sin' auld lang syne
- And here's a hand, my trusty friend,
- And gie's a hand o' thine;
- We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
- For auld lang syne
- Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
- and never brought to mind?
- Should auld acquaintance be forgot
- and days of auld lang syne?
- For auld lang syne, my dear,
- For auld lang syne,
- We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
- For auld lang syne
