Paroles de Auld Lang Syne

Should old acquaintances be forgotten, And never brought to mind? Should old acquaintances be forgotten, And days of long ago! Chorus: For old long ago, my dear For old long ago. We will take a cup of kindness yet For old long ago. We two have run about the hillsides•and pulled the daisies fine, But we have wandered many a weary foot•for old long ago. We two have paddled (waded) in the stream•from noon until dinner time, But seas between us broad have roared•since old long ago. And there is a hand, my trusty friend, And give us a hand of yours, And we will take a goodwill draught (of ale) For old long ago! And surely you will pay for your pint, And surely I will pay for mine! And we will take a cup of kindness yet For old long ago
