Goodbye, My Caledonia, Edinburgh.
Hello, Guangzhou, I am coming home.

 

  最后系送上一首经典的苏格兰民歌《Auld Lang Syne》，它也是爱丁堡除夕晚会的保留曲目，在迎来新年的一刻奏响。这首歌的词来自18世纪苏格兰诗人Robert Burns的一首诗。除了苏格兰盖尔语之外，这首歌还被多国谱上当地语言，英文版是Long Long Ago；中文版是《友谊天长地久》；日文版是《萤之光》，同时也是电影《魂断蓝桥》的主旋律。

Robert Burns' original Scots Verse

 

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

For auld lang syne, my jo,
For auld lang syne,
We’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
And surely ye’ll be your pint-stowp !
And surely I’ll be mine !
And we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
 
We twa hae run about the braes,
And pu’d the gowans fine ;
But we’ve wander’d mony a weary foot,
Sin auld lang syne.

We twa hae paidl’d i' the burn,
Frae morning sun till dine ;
But seas between us braid hae roar’d
Sin auld lang syne.
 
And there’s a hand, my trusty fiere !
And gie's a hand o’ thine !
And we’ll tak a right gude-willy waught,
For auld lang syne.
