Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
and days of auld lang syne?  

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne  

We twa hae run aboot the braes
And pou'd the gowans fine;
we've wander'd mony a weary foot
Sin' auld lang syne  

We two hae paidled i' the burn,
Frae mornin' sun till done;
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
Sin' auld lang syne  

And here's a hand, my trusty friend,
And gie's a hand o'thine;
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne  

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
and days of auld lang syne?  

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne
