Make new friends, but keep the old;
those are silver, these are gold.
New-made friendships,like new wine,
age will mellow and refine.
Friendships that have stood the test-
time and change-are surely best.
Brow may wrinkle , hair grows grey;
Friendship never knows decay.
For mid old friends, tried and true,
Once more our youth renew.
Cherish friendship in your breast-
New s good , but old is best;
Make new friends, but keep the old;
Those are silver, these are gold.
