Auld Lang Syne is an old Scottish poem. It tells about the need to remember old friends. The words "auld lang syne" mean "old long since."
No one knows who wrote the poem first. However, a version by Scottish poet Robert Burns was published in 1796. The words and music we know today first appeared in a songbook three years later.
This song is sung in the United States mainly on New Year's Eve.
Here is another version is by the Scottish group The Cast.
As we end this Words and Their Stories with their version of "Auld Lang Syne," I would like to wish all of our listening friends a very Happy New Year!
For auld lang syne, my jo (dear) For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet For auld lang syne...
