Burns' Auld Lang Syne is recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the third most popular song on the planet, behind Happy Birthday and For He's a Jolly Good Fellow.
Auld Lang Syne
Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And auld lang syne! Chorus -For auld land syne, my dear, For auld lang syne, We'll tak 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 tak a cup o' kindness yet, For auld lang syne.
Chorus...
We twa hae run about the braes, And pou'd the gowans fine; But we've wander'd mony a weary fit Sin' auld lang syne.
Chorus...
We twa hae paidl'd in the burn, Frae morning sun till dine; But seas between us briad hae roar'd Sin' auld lang syne.
Chorus...
And there's a hand, my trusty fere! And gie's a hand o' thine! And we'll tak' a right gude-willie waught, For auld lang syne.
