Should auld acquaintance be forgot
and never 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
for auld lang syne, my dear
for auld lang syne
we'll tak a cup o' kindness yet
for auld lang syne
we twa hae run about the braes
and pou'd the gowans fine
but we've wander'd mony a weary fit
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
we twa hae paidl'd in the burn
frae morning sun till dine
but seas between us briad 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 there's a hand, my trusty fere!
and gie's a hand o' thine!
and we'll tak' a right gude-willie 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
