Traditional (Scottish)
In A major, range E4 to F♯5
The title means “long, long ago”. Old friends meet again after many years, remember running over the hills and paddling in the stream as children, and drink a cup of kindness to the old days. Robert Burns wrote the words down in 1788 from an old man’s singing, he said; the piano part is from the American songbook Heart Songs (1909).
