and pou'd the gowans fine;

but we've wander'd mony a weary fit,

sin' auld lang syne.

for auld, &c.

we twa hae paidl'd in the burn,

frae morning sun till dine;

but seas between us braid hae roar'd

sin' auld lang syne.

for auld, &c.

and there's a hand, my trusty fere!

and gie's a hand o' thine!

and we'll tak a right gude-willie waught,

for auld lang syne.

for auld, &c.
