This Scottish melody I heard as a child played twice a year when my Pop was in the Indian military academy - at the passing out parade . Here are the Lyrics
Should old acquaintance be forgot,and never brought to mind ?Should old acquaintance be forgot,and old Lang Syne ?For auld lang syne, my dear,for auld lang syne,we'll take a cup of kindness yet,for auld lang syne. And surely you’ll buy your pint cup !and surely I’ll buy mine !And we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,for auld lang syne We two have paddled in the stream,from morning sun till dine† ;But seas between us broad have roared since auld lang syne.
And so it was that on an October Sunday afternoon several IITD ers got together at The Schaumburg convention centre. and it did seem like old times surd's shop sitting on charpoys and moodhas and gassing away.
It was wonderful to know what each was doing and to receive so many positive vibes on my new venture.
