Lyrics:
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And ne’er brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And auld lang syne?
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
We twa hae run aboot the braes
And pou’d the gowans fine;
But we’ve wander’d mony a weary foot
Sin’ auld lang syne.
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
We two hae paidled I’ the burn,
Frae mornin’ sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae roar’d
Sin’ auld lang syne.
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
And here’s a hand, my trusty fiere,
And gie’s a hand o’ thine;
And we’ll tak’ a right gude-willy waught,
For auld lang syne
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
