Shirley Temple "Auld Lang Syne"

"Auld Lang Syne" is a Scottish song and can be translated as "Old times". It is about love and friendship.

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne?

Chorus:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

So, here's my hand my trusty friend,
And gie's a hand o thine,
We'll meet again some other day
For the days of auld lang syne
