No, you've got it wrong. 'Auld Lang Syne ' was a song brought over by the Irish ferretherders. It refers to their propensity to catch colds in the unexpectedly dry climate of Scotland. It literally means 'my sinuses feel as if they're coming out of my armpits'
99% of Scottish people don't know what they actually mean!
It is a lovely song, full of emotion. All the best to everyone.
Bob Redford and Meryl Streep kiss each other in ‘Out of Africa’ with the “Auld Lang Syne”... nice moment. Happy 2018 for all @NewYorker readers
what a great movie!!
Yes! I had a farm in Africa at the foot of the Ngong Hills...
Thank you for this beautiful story! More than anything I treasure quiet times of reflection on "auld lang syne!"
I loved your story, thank you.
Lovely article, well written.
Excellent Article, very informative. Thank you.
@maggieNYT Thank you so much for sharing! This is a GREAT story and enjoyed my own recollection of past events in Auld Lang Syne.
Happy New Year!
A beautiful story!!
as in reality; we skim the surface
Such a lovely and loving story — thank you for sharing and New Years blessings to you

Would have been nice to see the actual Scots in the article. I'm a big fan of "and we'll take a right guid willie-Waught for auld Lang syne"
Love this story.
When I was a child I thought they were singing "old anxien" like yeah let that old anxiety be forgot 

Reasonably certain I have never heard this song, new years or otherwise and I'm pushing 35.
