Words by Robert Burns
Shoul Gd auld acqu Daintance be forgot,
EmAnd never brou Cght to mind?
Shou Gld auld acqu Daintance be forgot,
And Cauld Glang syne!
Chorus
GFor auld lang Dsyne, my Gdear, For Cauld lang syne.
GWe'll take a Dcup o' kindn Cess yet, GFor auld lang syne.
Verse 2
And surely you'll buy your coffee cup! And surely I'll
buy mine!And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet, for
auld lang syne.
[CHORUS]
Verse 3
We two have run about the slopes, And picked the
daisies fine;
But we've wandered many a weary foot, Since auld
lang syne.
[CHORUS]
We two have paddled in the stream, From morning sun
till dine;
But seas between us broad have roared Since auld
lang syne.
[CHORUS]
And there's a hand my trusty friend! And give me a
hand o' thine!
And we'll take a right good-will draught, For auld lang
syne.
[CHORUS]
