AULD LANGSYNE.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,an' never brought to mind; Should auld acquaintance be forgot,An' days o' langsyne.
For auld langsyne, my dear,For auld langsyne;We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yetFor auld langsyne.
We twa hae run about the braes.an' pu'd the gowans fine;But we've wander'd mony a weary fit,sin' auld langsyne.for auld langsyne, &c.
We twa hae paidelt in the burn,when summer days were prime;But seas between us braid hae roar'd,sin' auld langsyne,for auld langsyne, &c.
And there's a hand, my trusty friend,and gie's a hand o' thine,An' we'll toom the cup to friendship's growth,for auld langsyne,for auld langsyne, &c,
An' surely ye'll be your pint-stoup,as sure as I'll be mine;And we'll tak' a right gude willie-waugh.for auld langsyne.For auld langsyne, my dear,for auld langsyne;We'll take a cup o' kindness yetfor auld langsyne,
