Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind ? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and days of auld lang syne ? (old long since) For auld lang syne, my jo, for auld lang syne, we’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet, for auld lang syne. We twa hae run about the braes, and pulled the gowans fine we’ve wandered many a weary foot, since auld lang syne. For auld lang syne, my jo, for auld lang syne, we’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet, for the sake of auld lang syne. We twa hae paddled in the burn, frae morning sun till dine But seas between us broad have roared sin auld lang syne. And surely ye’ll be your pint-stowp ! and surely I’ll be mine ! And we’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet, for auld lang syne. For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne, we’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet, for the sake of auld lang syne. And here’s a hand, my trusty fere ! and gie's a hand o’ thine ! And we’ll take a right gude-willy waught, for the sake of auld lang syne. For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne, we’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet, for auld lang syne, for auld lang syne.
