A happy new year from Scotland.......

Here's the famous song\poem penned by Robert Burns......

The song

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 take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne

And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp
And surely I'll be mine
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet
for auld lang syne

The poem

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And 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
And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp
And surely I'll be mine
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet
for auld lang syne
We twa hae run about the braes
And pou'd the gowans fine
We've wandered mony a weary foot
Sin' auld lang syne
We twa hae sported i the burn
From morning sun till dine
But seas between us braid hae roared
Sin' auld lang syne
And ther's a hand, my trusty friend
And gie's a hand o' thine
We'll tak' a right good willie-waught
For auld lang syne

All the best everyone

Sing it every year.
