New Year's

Here's to the bright New Year

A song for the old, while its knell is tolled,
And its parting moments fly!
But a song and a cheer for the glad New Year,
While we watch the old year die!
-George Cooper

 

Another year is dawning! Let it be
For better or for worse, another year with thee.

 

As we start the New Year,
Let's get down on our knees
to thank God we're on our feet.
-Irish

 

Be at war with your voices, at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a better man.
-Benjamin Franklin

 

Here's to the bright New Year
And a fond farewell to the old;
Here's to the things that are yet to come
And to the memories that we hold.

 

Here's to you a New Year's Toast
May your Joy ne'er see a Sorrow's Ghost.

 

In the New Year,
may your right hand always be stretched out in friendship,
but never in want.
-Irish

 

In the year ahead,
May we treat our friends with kindness
and our enemies with generosity.

 

Let us resolve to do the best we can with what we've got.
-William Feather

 

May all your troubles during the coming year be as short as your New Year's resolutions.

 

May it be the best year yet for you And everything prosper you may do.

 

Here's to the bright New Year

May the best of this year be the worst of next.

 

May the Lord keep you in his hand
and never close his fist too tight on you. And may the face of every good news and the back of every bad news be toward us in the New Year.
-Irish

 

May the new year help to make us old.

 

May the New Year bring summer in its wake.
-Irish

 

May the New Year grant you
the eye of a blacksmith on a nail
the good humor of a girl at a dance
the strong hand of a priest on his parish.
-Irish

 

May this sweetest oldtime greeting
Heavily laden with good cheers
Bring content, and peace and plenty
Enough to last through all the Year.

 

May your nets be always full-
your pockets never empty.
May your horse not cast a shoe
nor the devil look at you
in the coming year.
-Irish

 

New Year's Resolution:

Whatever you resolve to do,
On any New Year's Day,
Resolve to yourself to be true
And live-the same old way.

 

Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring happy bells across the snow;
The year is going, let him go.
-Alfred Lord Tennyson

 

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to min',
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And days of auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.

And here's a hand, my trusty fierce,
And gie's a hand o' thine,
And we'll tak' a right guid willie-waught,
For auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,

We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
And surely ye'll be your pint stowpt,
And surely I'll be mine,
And we'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,
For auld lang syne.
-Robert Burns

 

Stir the eggnog, lift the toddy,
Happy New Year, everybody.
-Phyllis Mcginley

 

The New Year is ringing in,
May he be bringing in
The Good Times we've waited for so long in vain!
Without the demanding
All rise and drink standing,
And so say we all of us again and again.

The Old Man's dead. He was okay, maybe
But here's a health to the brand new baby.
I give you 19-.

To a firm hand for a flighty beast
an old dog for the long road
a kettle of fish for Friday
and a welcome for the New Year.
-Irish

 

Welcome be ye that are here,
Welcome all, and make good cheer,
Welcome all, another year.
