icecap Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Well, I google it. Auld Lane Syne seems to originate from an old folk song in Scotland.But it became famous since Robert Burns wrote it.http://www.yourscottishname.com/poemsofbur..._lang_syne2.htmAuld Lane Syne is a great song, no doubt it.
