- Description
- Auld Lang Syne is probably the most famous Scottish song, as it's sung all around the world during New Year celebrations. The lyrics were penned by Robert Burns in 1788 although to what tune nobody knows for certain. The most famous melody was published alongside the lyrics in 1796 and appears to be a very old folk tune. Regardless of this fact, Auld Lang Syne is a lovely song, sure to enchant audiences and fill everyone with a sense of nostalgia.
Lyrics to all five verses are included along with a suggested piano part, although if you'd prefer, you can play the chords on the guitar or on any other instrument.
