Happy New Masonic Year!!

Auld Lang Syne

By Bro. Robert Burns

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And day of auld lang syne!

Chorus.-For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne.
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.  

For those who didn't know auld lang syne literally means "old long since" - but a more idiomatic English translation would be something like "long ago", "days of long ago", "in olden days", or even "once upon a time" -

and the poet Robert Burns was also a Freemason

Happy New Year, 2011 Brethren. May the year bring you peace, happiness, and light.
