"Auld Lang Syne" (Scots pronunciation: [ˈɔːl(d) lɑŋˈsəin]: note "s" rather than "z")[is a Scots poem written by Robert Burns in 1788 and set to the tune of a traditional folk song. It is well known in many countries, especially in the English-speaking world, its traditional use being to bid farewell to the old 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 Scouting movement, in many countries, uses it to close jamborees and other functions.
Auld Lang Syne – popularna szkocka pieśń ludowa, do której tekst w 1788 napisał Robert Burns. Jest tradycyjnie śpiewana podczas Hogmanay (szkocki odpowiednik Sylwestra) oraz podczas Sylwestra w krajach anglosaskich.
Należy do najpopularniejszych i najczęściej wykonywanych pieśni na świecie. Stanowi jedno z głównych dóbr eksportowych kultury szkockiej.
