This song has a history
As Wikipedia tells us,
"Traditionally it is sung to bid farewell to the old year at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve," and may also be heard at funerals, graduations, and as a farewell or ending to other occasions.
It is certainly a beautiful song, like much music from Scotland.
