Auld Lang Syne

shalom, just go straight to point. I want to share this song because it has the great meaning for me... It always sang at the new year eve to wait for the new year to come... this is wonderful full song actually.... let me show you the lyrics... It had two version, the original which the traditional and English modern translation...

Burns’ original Scots verse

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,

we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,

for auld lang syne.

And surely ye’ll be your pint-stowp !


and surely I’ll be mine !


And we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,


for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We twa hae run about the braes,


and pu’d the gowans fine ;


But we’ve wander’d mony a weary fit,


sin auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We twa hae paidl’d i' the burn,


frae morning sun till dine ;


But seas between us braid hae roar’d


sin auld lang syne.

CHORUS

And there’s a hand, my trusty fiere !


and gie's a hand o’ thine !


And we’ll tak a right gude-willy waught,


for auld lang syne.

CHORUS
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 you’ll buy your pint cup !


and surely I’ll 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 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 us a hand o’ thine !


And we’ll take a right good-will draught,


for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

the meaning for 'Auld Lang Syne' is actually Times Goes Byl... anyway... have a good sing this song... Bye
