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 

In case anyone is interested, all of the audios I post are from my own CDs
