Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And auld lang syne? Chorus For auld lang syne, my jo, For auld lang syne, We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet, For auld lang syne. And surely ye'll be your pint-stoup, And surely I'll be mine; And we'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet, For auld lang syne. For auld, etc. 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, etc. We twa hae paidl'd in the burn, Frae morning sun till dine; But seas between us braid hae roar'd. Sin' auld lang syne. For auld, etc. And there's a hand, my trusty fiere! And gie's a hand o' thine! And we'll tak' a right gud-wellie waught, For auld lang syne. For auld, etc. Translation ----------- Should old friendship be forgot' And never remembered ? Should old friendship be forgotten, And days of long ago. And surely you will have your tankard ! And surely I will have mine ! And we will take a cup of kindness yet, For days of long ago' We two have run about the hills And pulled the daisies fine : But we have wandered many a weary foot Since days of long ago. We two have waded in the streamFrom dawn till dinner-time : But seas between us broad have roared Since days of long ago. And there's a hand my trusty friend ! And give me a hand of thine ! And we will take a large draught For days of long ago. ROBBIE BURNS +++++++ 2) NOTICES Hillside Dams Conservancy.
