Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and old lang syne ?
CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
And surely youll buy your pint cup !
and surely Ill buy mine !
And we'll take a cup o kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
CHORUS
We two have run about the slopes,
and picked the daisies fine ;
But weve wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.
CHORUS
We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine ;
But seas between us broad have roared
since auld lang syne.
CHORUS
And theres a hand my trusty friend !
And give us a hand o thine !
And well take a right good-will draught,
for auld lang syne.
CHORUS
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 jo,
for auld lang syne,
well tak a cup o kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
And surely yell be your pint-stowp !
and surely Ill be mine !
And well tak a cup o kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
CHORUS
We twa hae run about the braes,
and pud the gowans fine ;
But weve wanderd mony a weary fit,
sin auld lang syne.
CHORUS
We twa hae paidld i' the burn,
frae morning sun till dine ;
But seas between us braid hae roard
sin auld lang syne.
CHORUS
And theres a hand, my trusty fiere !
and gie's a hand o thine !
And well tak a right gude-willy waught,
for auld lang syne.
