Today in Masonic History we present Auld Lang Syne by Robert Burns.
This is the poem written by Robert Burns around 1788.
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.
Weâll tak a cup oâ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
And surely yeâll be your pint stowp!
And surely Iâll be mine!
And weâll tak a cup oâ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
Weâll tak a cup oâ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
We twa hae run about the braes,
And pouâd the gowans fine;
But weâve wanderâd mony a weary fit,
Sinâ auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
Weâll tak a cup oâ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
We twa hae paidlâd in the burn,
Frae morning sun till dine;
But seas between us braid hae roarâd
Sinâ auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
Weâll tak a cup oâ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
And thereâs a hand, my trusty fere!
And gieâs a hand oâ thine!
And weâll tak a right gude-willie waught,
For auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
Weâll tak a cup oâ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
