Auld Lang Syne “has e the traditional song among English-speaking peoples for bidding farewell to the old year and hailing the new.” This song presents “the theme of passing time through a context of remembered friendship. The song very bines a note of present conviviality with a poignant sense of the loss of panionship brought by time and distance. Such a note is just right for New Year's Eve, when the mind hovers between retrospect and anticipation and we think equally of days gone for ever and days e.”
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 of 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?
And here's a hand, my trusty friend And gie's a hand o' thine We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet For auld
lang syne
