Auld Lang Syne Translated Should old friends be forgotten and never remembered Should old friends be forgotten and the days they shared together Chorus For days now in the past, my dear For days now in the past We'll drink a toast of kind remembrance For days now in the past You can pay for your pint tankard and I will pay for mine We'll drink a toast of kind remembrance For days now in the past We two have run about the hillsides and pulled wild daisies but now we are far apart in distance From those days now in the past We two have paddled in the stream from morning untill noon but oceans now lie between us since those days now in the past So take my hand, my trusty friend and give me your hand and we will take a hearty drink together In memory of those days now in the past There You go Theresa :-) Shaz x

Hi Christine, Thanks for putting the words of Auld lang syne on the board, I am not being rude here, so please dont take this the wrong way, but is there any chance of a translation? they are lovely words but i'm not sure of a lot of the words. Regards Theresa

Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot And auld lang syne? Refrain: For auld lang syne, my dear, For auld lang syne, We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet For auld lang syne. 2. 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. Refrain: 3. We twa hae mn about the braes And pou'd the gowans fine; But we've wander'd mony a weary foot Sin' auld lang syne. Refrain: 4. We two hae paidled i' the burn, Frae morning sun till dine; But seas between us braid hae roar'd Sin' auld lang syne. Refrain: 5. And here'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. Refrain
