Should auld acquaintance be forqot,
|
Tho' they return with scars?
|
These are a noble hero's lot,
|
Obtain'd in glorious wars;
|
Welcome, my Varo, to my breast,
|
Thy arms about me twine,
|
And make me once again as blest,
|
As I was lang syne.
|
|
O'er moor and dale with your gay friend
|
You may pursue the chase,
|
And after a blythe bottle end
|
|
AII cares in my embrace.
|
And in a vacant rainy day
|
You shall be wholly mine:
|
We'll make the hours run smooth away
|
And laugh at lang syne.
|
Shall Monarchy be quite forgot,
|
And of it no more heard?
|
Antiquity be razed about
|
And slav'ry put in stead?
|
Is Scotsman's blood now grown so cold,
|
The valor of their mind,
|
That they can never once reflect
|
On old lang syne?
