auld lang syne

One song that always takes me back to my Welham days is the 'Auld Lang Syne'.. our days as SCs (Class 12 students) when after every 'last school event', we would link arms and make a circle and sing aloud this wonderful song we barely knew the lyrics to.. 

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne* ?
For auld lang syne, my jo (or my dear),
for auld lang syne,
we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,
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 gude-willy waught,
for auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my jo (or my dear),
for auld lang syne,
we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.
