with a chorus or two of an old favorite:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n

Auld Lang Syne <\/b><\/p>\n

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
\nand never brought to mind?
\nShould auld acquaintance be forgot,
\nand auld lang syne?<\/p>\n

CHORUS:
\nFor auld lang syne, my jo,
\nfor auld lang syne,
\nWe\u2019ll tak a cup o\u2019 kindness yet,
\nfor auld lang syne.<\/p>\n

And surely ye\u2019ll be your pint-stowp
\nand surely I\u2019ll be mine!
\nAnd we\u2019ll tak a cup o\u2019 kindness yet,
\nfor auld lang syne.<\/p>\n

CHORUS<\/p>\n

We twa hae run about the braes,
\nand pu\u2019d the gowans fine;
\nBut we\u2019ve wander\u2019d mony a weary fit,
\nsin auld lang syne.<\/p>\n

CHORUS<\/p>\n

We twa hae paidl\u2019d i’ the burn,
\nfrae morning sun till dine;
\nBut seas between us braid hae roar\u2019d
\nsin auld lang syne.<\/p>\n

CHORUS<\/p>\n

And there\u2019s a hand, my trusty fiere!
\nand gie’s a hand o\u2019 thine!
\nAnd we\u2019ll tak a right gude-willy waught,
\nfor auld lang syne.<\/p>\n

CHORUS<\/p>\n

 <\/td>\n

\n

Old<\/i><\/b> Long<\/i> Since<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Should old<\/i> acquaintance be forgot,
\nand never brought to mind?
\nShould old<\/i> acquaintance be forgot,
\nand old<\/i> long<\/i> since<\/i>?<\/p>\n

CHORUS:
\nFor old<\/i> long<\/i> since<\/i>, my dear<\/i>,
\nfor old<\/i> long<\/i> since<\/i>,
\nWe’ll take a cup of kindness yet,
\nfor old<\/i> long<\/i> since<\/i>.<\/p>\n

And surely you\u2019ll buy<\/i> your pint cup<\/i>
\nand surely I\u2019ll buy<\/i> mine!
\nAnd we’ll take a cup o\u2019 kindness yet,
\nfor old<\/i> long<\/i> since<\/i>.<\/p>\n

CHORUS<\/p>\n

We two have<\/i> run about the slopes<\/i>,
\nand picked<\/i> the daisies<\/i> fine;
\nBut we\u2019ve wandered many<\/i> a weary foot<\/i>,
\nsince<\/i> old<\/i> long<\/i> since<\/i>.<\/p>\n

CHORUS<\/p>\n

We two have paddled<\/i> in the stream<\/i>,
\nfrom<\/i> morning sun till diner-time;
\nBut seas between us broad have roared<\/i>
\nsince<\/i> old<\/i> long<\/i> since<\/i>.<\/p>\n

CHORUS<\/p>\n

And there\u2019s a hand my trusty friend<\/i>!
\nAnd give us<\/i> a hand o\u2019 thine!
\nAnd we\u2019ll take<\/i> a right good-will draught<\/i>,
\nfor old<\/i> long<\/i> since<\/i>.<\/p>\n

CHORUS<\/p>\n
