STRENGTH  &  HONOR

 

Should old acquaintance be forgot,

and never brought to mind?

Should old acquaintance be forgot,

and old times since?

 

We two have paddled in the stream,

from morning sun til dine,

But seas between us broad have roared,

since auld lang syne,

 

And there's a hand my trusty friend !

And give us a hand o" thine !

And we'll take right good-will draught,

for Auld Lang Syne.
