Verse 1 (of dozens):
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 dear for auld lang syne
We’ll tak’ a cup o’ kindness yet for auld lang syne.

Verse 2: 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

Verse 3: We two have run about the slopes
And picked the daisies fine, but we’ve wandered
Many a weary foot since auld lang syne
