about

Auld Lang Syne - Universal Peace Song!!!
So, once the New Year's celebrations are over, and while their memory is still fresh in yer mind I'd like to revisit one of 18th century Scottish poet, Robert Burns', most famous songs, Auld Lang Syne; one for which he gets very little recognition. It's actually an auld Scottish fowk song about 2 people who settle long held differences over a glass of their favorite tipple, shake hands and decide to make the peace for old times sake. This version of it is a wee bit different from the traditional "New Year Song" we sing on Hogmanay at midnight on December 31st to bring in the new year. It is still Auld Lang Syne by
Robert Burns.

lyrics

Peace For Auld Lang Syne

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days o' auld lang syne.

For auld lang syne, my jo,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne,

All we are saying, is give peace a chance
Let bygones be bygones
All we are saying, is give peace a chance
For auld lang syne.

And there's a hand, my trusty fiere!
And gie's a hand o' thine!
And we'll tak a right guid willy waught,
For auld lang syne.

Chorus.
For auld lang syne, my jo,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne,

All we are saying, is give peace a chance
Let bygones be bygones
All we are saying, is give peace a chance
For auld lang syne.
