And never brought to mind?
Should Auld acquaintance be forgot
And days of Auld Lang Syne
For Auld Lang Syne, my dear
For Auld Lang Syne
We'll take a cup of kindness yet
And here's the hand, my trusty friend
And gives a hand of thine
We'll take a cup of kindness yet

We'll take a cup of kindness yet

The song "Auld Lang Syne" is a traditional Scottish folk song that is widely known as a New Year's Eve song. It is based on a poem written by Scottish poet Robert Burns in 1788, and it is traditionally sung or played at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve to bid farewell to the old year and welcome in the new one. The lyrics of the song reflect on old friendships and memories, and the importance of keeping those connections alive.
The first verse of the song asks the question of whether old acquaintances should be forgotten and left behind. The answer is that they should not, and that a cup of kindness should be shared in remembrance of those times. The song calls for a raising of glasses to honor old friends and times gone by, and for hands to be joined in friendship.
The phrase "Auld Lang Syne" itself can be translated to mean "old long since" or "old times". The song has been translated into many languages and is sung all over the world, especially on New Year's Eve.

It's a beautiful song. A beautiful sentiment. And one we need now more than ever. We're going for a full-world tour of the modern day equivalent of the 1918 Influenza outbreak. Sad how badly we're prepared for something of this magnitude.
