    Happy Burns Day to you too, hope you are enjoying your haggis, neeps 'n' tatties

    It means "For Old Long Ago"

    Here is a link to the translation for the whole song

    Thanks Minnie - and to you too! I've just finished my haggis, neeps and tatties, served with a glass of Irn Bru naturally, so I'm a happy Scots bunny.

    Auld Lang Syne translated literally is "Old Long Ago", but generally means "times gone by" - basically it's a song about drinking to friendship (a cup o' kindness) and the good old days!

    If you click the song lyrics link on right hand side of the karaoke page you provided, it'll give you the full lyrics along with a list of Scots/English translations at the bottom.

    I've just had my haggis and will wash it down in a little while with a 10 year old single malt from Islay
