Auld Lang Syne : Lyrics
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.
Meaning of Auld Lang Syne and Cup O' Kindness
The Meaning of 'Auld' is "Old" and the meaning of 'Lang Syne ' is "Long Since". The lyrics "We'll take a cup o' kindness yet" refers to the tradition of raising a glass, or a cup o' kindness meaning with "good will, friendship and kind regard" and in remembrance of "noble deeds". The custom of drinking a "health" at a special gathering to the prosperity or good health of another dates back into antiquity. The old Christmas term 'Wassail' derives from Old Norse phrase 'ves heill' meaning "be healthy". So next time you sing Auld Lang Syne you'll now know its meaning!
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2018

@AnikaBrodie ... Thank you so much, my friend, for explaining the meaning of this!! I always meant to look it up because it sounded odd to me!! Yes, now when l hear or sing it, l will know what it means!!
I haven't been here daily because of how busy the holiday was. I waited till the day of Christmas to wrap most of my gifts...but l had such a great time with my siblings, et al, at my nephew's home...then to my sister's to have Christmas with her and her daughter (my niece and Goddaughter!) where the 3 of us opened our gifts to each other. Her daughter is here for 2 weeks from the other side of our country so this was a very special time for us to spend this quality time together!! We had a wonderful time! I still have more gifts to wrap for them so we'll celebrate another evening!!
I hope your holiday season has been wonderful !! ...and this message is to all my friends here as well.
HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my friends!!! May 2018 bring you good health, happiness and wonderful times!!
BIG HUGS TO ALL OF ((((((YOU)))))).
