Auld Lang Syne
A Timeless Toast: Reflecting on Fond Memories and Kindness
Lyrics
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
Questioning whether old friendships should be forgotten
And never brought to mind?
Asking if these friendships should never be remembered
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
Reiterating the question of whether old acquaintances should be forgotten
And days of auld lang syne?
Reflecting on the days of long ago
For auld lang syne, my dear
Expressing a sentiment for the sake of old times and friendships
For auld lang syne
Repeating the sentiment for the sake of old times and friendships
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet
Committing to share a cup of kindness in the future
For days of auld lang syne
Referring to the days of long ago once again
We twa hae run about the braes
Recalling running and picking flowers together
And pu'd the gowans fine
Having wandered many a tired step
But we've wander'd mony a weary fit
Reflecting on the journey since the days of long ago
Sin days of auld lang syne
Continuing to reminisce about past experiences
We twa hae paidl'd i' the burn
Remembering paddling in the stream
Frae morning sun till dine
Spending time together from morning until dinner
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
Noting the vast seas that now separate them
Sin days of auld lang syne
Referring once more to the days of long ago
For auld lang syne, my dear
Reiterating the sentiment for the sake of old times and friendships
For auld lang syne
Repeating the expression for the sake of old times and friendships
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet
Committing once again to share a cup of kindness in the future
For days of auld lang syne
Referencing the days of long ago
And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp
Anticipating the continuation of individual journeys and experiences
And surely I'll be mine
Acknowledging individual paths and destinies
And we'll tak a cup o' kindness yet
Committing to share a cup of kindness in the future once more
For auld lang syne
Referring to the days of long ago again
And there's a hand, my trusty fiere
Pointing to a trustworthy friend
And gie's a hand o' thine
Extending a hand in friendship
And we'll tak a right gude-willy waught
Committing to a hearty handshake for the sake of old times
For auld lang syne
Referring to the days of long ago one last time
For auld lang syne, my dear
Reiterating the sentiment for the sake of old times and friendships
For auld lang syne
Repeating the expression for the sake of old times and friendships
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet
Committing once again to share a cup of kindness in the future
For auld lang syne
Referencing the days of long ago
For auld lang syne, my dear
Reiterating the sentiment for the sake of old times and friendships
For auld lang syne
Repeating the expression for the sake of old times and friendships
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet
Committing once again to share a cup of kindness in the future
For auld lang syne
Referencing the days of long ago for the final time
