Eddi Reader – Auld Lang Syne lyrics
Should auld acquaintance be forgot, [auld = old]
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days of auld lang syne. [auld lang syne = old long
Since]
Chorus
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For the sake of old lang syne.
We twa hae run about the braes, [twa = two; braes =
Slope of a small hill]
And pulled the gowans fine; [gowan = wild daisy]
We've wandered many a weary fit, [fit = footstep]
Since auld lang syne.
For auld...
We twa hae paddled in the burn, [burn = small stream]
Frae morning sun 'til dine; [frae = from; dine =
Dinner]
But seas between us broad have roared
Since auld lang syne.
Aye and surely you'll be your pint stowp! [pint stowp =
A description of a beer-belly]
And surely I'll be mine!
We'll take a right gude-willie waught, [gude-willie
Waught = a good will drink]
For the sake of auld lang syne.
For auld...
And here's a hand, my trusty fere! [fere = friend]
And gie's a hand o' thine! [gie's = give me]
We'll take cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
For auld...
For auld lang syne.
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days of auld lang syne. [auld lang syne = old long
Since]
Chorus
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For the sake of old lang syne.
We twa hae run about the braes, [twa = two; braes =
Slope of a small hill]
And pulled the gowans fine; [gowan = wild daisy]
We've wandered many a weary fit, [fit = footstep]
Since auld lang syne.
For auld...
We twa hae paddled in the burn, [burn = small stream]
Frae morning sun 'til dine; [frae = from; dine =
Dinner]
But seas between us broad have roared
Since auld lang syne.
Aye and surely you'll be your pint stowp! [pint stowp =
A description of a beer-belly]
And surely I'll be mine!
We'll take a right gude-willie waught, [gude-willie

For the sake of auld lang syne.
For auld...
And here's a hand, my trusty fere! [fere = friend]
And gie's a hand o' thine! [gie's = give me]
We'll take cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
For auld...
For auld lang syne.
