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!

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

II
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!

III
We twa hae run about the braes,
And pou'd the gowans fine,
But we've wander'd monie a weary fit
Sin'auld lang syne.

IV
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.

V
And there's a hand, my trusty fiere,
And gie's a hand o'thine,
And we'll tak a right guid-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!
