"Auld Lang Syne" (Scots pronunciation: [ˈɔːl(d) lɑŋˈsəin]: note "s" rather than "z")[1] is a Scots poem written by Robert
Burns in 1788[2][3] and set to the tune of a traditional folk song (Roud # 6294). It is well known in many countries,
especially in the English-speaking world, its traditional use being to
celebrate the start of the New Year at the stroke of midnight. By extension, it is
also sung at funerals, graduations and as a farewell or ending to other
occasions. The international Boy Scout youth movement, in many countries, uses it as a
close to jamborees and other functions. The song has been
translated into more than 40 languages.[4]
