Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind,
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
In days of auld lang syne,
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll take a cup of kindness, dear,
for days of auld lang syne.
I know you'll raise good mugs of ale,
and surely I'll raise mine.
We'll raise them high and remember
when we sang of auld lang syne.
We two have run about the slopes
and picked the daisies fine
But we have strayed so far since then,
same stares of auld lang syne
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne
We'll take a cup of kindness, dear,
for days of Auld Lang Syne.
We, too, have paddled in the stream
from morning sun till dawn.
But seas between us broad
have roared
since days of Auld Lang Syne.
We've sung until the moon was full,
until the stars did shine.
We pray we've sung good health to you
for days of auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
We'll take a cup of kindness, dear,
for days of auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup of kindness, dear,
For days of auld lang syne.
