Melody

The tune to which Auld Lang Syne is universally sung is a pentatonic Scots (or possibly Northumbrian) folk melody - probably originally a sprightly dance in a much quicker tempo. In music, a pentatonic scale is a scale with five notes per octave. ... Northumbria is primarily the name of an Anglian or Anglo-Saxon kingdom which was formed in Great Britain at the beginning of the 7th century, and of the earldom which succeeded the kingdom. ...

The English composer William Shield seems to quote the Auld Lang Syne melody briefly at the end of the overture to his opera Rosina - this may be its first recorded use. The contention that Burns borrowed the melody from Shield is for various reasons highly unlikely - they may very well both have taken it from a common source, however - possibly a strathspey called The Miller's Wedding or The Miller's Daughter. The problem is that tunes based on the same set of dance steps necessarily have a similar rhythm, and even a superficial resemblance in melodic shape may cause a very strong apparent similarity in the tune as a whole. For instance, Burns' poem Coming through the rye is sung to a tune that might also be based on the Miller's Wedding. The origin of the tune of God Save the Queen (q.v.) presents a very similar problem, and for just the same reason, as it is also based on a dance measure. (See the note in the William Shield article on this subject.) William Shield (March 5, 1748 – January 25, 1829) was an English composer, violinist and violist who was born in Swalwell near Gateshead, the son of William Shield and his wife, Mary, nee Cash. ...

In Denmark, the song was translated in 1927 by the famous Danish poet Jeppe Aakjær. Much like Robert Burns' use of dialect, Aakjær translated the song into the Danish dialect Jysk, a dialect from the Danish peninsula Jutland, often hard to understand for other Danes. The song Skuld gammel venskab rejn forgo ('Should auld acquantaince be forgot - Scots / Should old acquaintance be forgotten - English'), is an integral part of the Danish Højskole tradition, and often associated with more rural areas and old traditions. Also, the former Danish rock group Gasolin modernized the melody in 1974 with their pop ballad Stakkels Jim ("Poor Jim"). Jeppe Aakjær (1866 - 1930) was a Danish poet and novel writer. ...

Lyrics

As detailed above - "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".

The complete lyrics, as Burns wrote them, are as follows -

Burns’ verse above is taken exactly from Songs from Robert Burns, published in Great Britain
by Collins Clear-Type Press in 1947, and sold at Burns’ Cottage.

Most traditional use of the song involves only the first verse and the chorus - with the last line changed to "and days of auld lang syne". See the external links for this article for discussion of this, and other lyrical variations.

The last line of the chorus is often mistakenly sung by audiences worldwide as, "For the sake of auld lang syne". This modern trend began in the mid to late 20th Century and is a practice that should be discouraged. This increasingly common practice serves to dilute the original Scottish heritage of the song and of course it's intent in bringing people together - regardless of background, culture, creed, faith, opinion, orientation, persuasion, politics and/or religion. This intent is in itself, a very Scottish trait - friendly, international in outlook, pluralistic and of course welcoming - to all!

History

Robert Burns forwarded a copy of the original song to the Scots Musical Museum with the remark, “The following song, an old song, of the olden times, and which has never been in print, nor even in manuscript until I took it down from an old man's singing, is enough to recommend any air.” At the time it was very fashionable to claim that one's own work was "traditional"; therefore one should take Burns' statement with mild skepticism. Even if some lines of the lyrics were indeed "collected" rather than composed by the poet, it is a fair supposition to attribute the poem as a whole to Burns himself. The Scots Musical Museum was a major publication that had a pivotal role in the collecting and tradition of Music of Scotland. ...

Singing the song on Hogmanay or New Year's Day very quickly became a Scots custom, which soon spread to other parts of the British Isles.

Bandleader Guy Lombardo is often credited with popularizing the use of the song at New Year’s celebrations in America, through his annual broadcasts on radio and TV, beginning in 1929. (The song became his trademark, and besides his live broadcasts, he recorded the song more than once, the first in 1939, and at least once later, on September 29, 1947, in a record issued as a single by Decca Records as catalog #24260.) However, he neither invented nor introduced the custom, even there. The ProQuest newspaper archive has articles dated 1896 that describe revellers on both sides of the Atlantic singing the song to usher in the New Year.
