Actually the song is Auld Lang Syne unless your going for a play on words.

AULD LANG SYNE

Words adapated from a traditional song
by Rabbie Burns (1759-96)

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

CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak a cup of 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 pou'd the gowans fine,
But we've wander'd monie a weary fit,
Sin auld lang syne.

We twa hae paidl'd in 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 guid-willie waught,
For auld lang syne

Meanings

auld lang syne - times gone by
be - pay for
braes - hills
braid - broad
burn - stream
dine - dinner time
fiere - friend
fit - foot
gowans - daisies
guid-willie waught - goodwill drink
monie - many
morning sun - noon
paidl't - paddled
pint-stowp - pint tankard
pou'd - pulled
twa - two

Happy Hogmanay

Racism- The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race.

The last statement would not necessarily lead any reader to believe that the writer was racist.
On the contrary, a very effective race of peoples it is that can integrate and facilitate-like the song says..."I Like Chinese"(Meaning of Life"?)
Act/react how you will to the single statement, but please, judge the writer according to the overall tone and sentiment of the bulk of his editorializing.

Heres My initial reaction...Great schtick for buskin- pick a song everyone knows on a traditional Chinese instrumennt...that,. with a stream of conciousness association, and a bit of wit, (whatever) and you have a statement heart-felt, both serious and in jest, pure, honest, and simple....
