This was a song we learnt in school.. If auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind, If auld acquaintance be forgot, and tales of auld lang syne.
I couldnt help feeling sorry thinking of an old man (who went by the strange nameof lang syne) quite forgotten and left to himself in the prairies :) Very nostalgic.
strangely enough, i have never heard this rhyme or song. pardon my ignorance, but the first time i heard about it was on dec 30 2005, on the radio, when someone was talking about how christmas has so many songs but new year has just one...and even then, i couldn't quite catch the name! Interesting it should show up here just a few days later!
word ver: kiraxxj (as Lingam yadav would say...kaikoo kiraak paasha!)

better! Moors, yes.
brings back vivid memories of the thrilling Baskervilles and the chilling "Wuthering heights".. Kudos to Emily Bronte!
And even I havent heard of it either, not until this female decides to post it here.

The Corrs (that Irish girl band) have performed the song auld lang syne--may be there is a reason it's origins are celtic.
