Auld Lang Syne Lyrics - Singles - Burns Robert

[English Translation] 

Should old acquaintance be forgot, 

and never brought to mind ? 

Should old acquaintance be forgot, 

and old lang syne ? 

CHORUS: 

For auld lang syne, my dear, 

for auld lang syne, 

we'll take a cup of kindness yet, 

for auld lang syne. 

And surely youll buy your pint cup ! 

and surely Ill buy mine ! 

And we'll take a cup o kindness yet, 

for auld lang syne. 

CHORUS 

We two have run about the slopes, 

and picked the daisies fine ; 

But weve 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 theres a hand my trusty friend ! 

And give us a hand o thine ! 

And well take a right good-will draught, 

for auld lang syne. 

CHORUS 

[Original] 

Should auld acquaintance be forgot, 

and never brought to mind ? 

Should auld acquaintance be forgot, 

and auld lang syne* ? 

CHORUS: 

For auld lang syne, my jo, 

for auld lang syne, 

well tak a cup o kindness yet, 

for auld lang syne. 

And surely yell be your pint-stowp ! 

and surely Ill be mine ! 

And well tak a cup o kindness yet, 

for auld lang syne. 

CHORUS 

We twa hae run about the braes, 

and pud the gowans fine ; 

But weve wanderd mony a weary fit, 

sin auld lang syne. 

CHORUS 

We twa hae paidld i' the burn, 

frae morning sun till dine ; 

But seas between us braid hae roard 

sin auld lang syne. 

CHORUS 

And theres a hand, my trusty fiere ! 

and gie's a hand o thine ! 

And well tak a right gude-willy waught, 

for auld lang syne.
