Robert Burns

(25 January 1759 — 21 July 1796)

Robert Burns is the national poet of Scotland and Scotland's best-loved bard. His poetry and songs have never been out of fashion. Translations have made him a classic in other countries.

Burns wrote in the Scots language and in English. He preserved the Scots language in literary form and greatly contributed to the development of Scottish national culture. His birthday, January 25, is the annual occasion of ‘Burns Night’ festivities.

Burns devoted the last years of his life to the song tradition and collected folk songs. The traditional song of the Scottish people impressed him greatly and its tune, as he himself wrote, thrilled his soul. Robert Burns turned the original words into a beautiful poem, a song that has conquered the world.

Auld Lang Syne written by Robert Burns is sung by people at New Year parties from London and New York to Tokyo. Auld Lang Syne means ‘Long, Long Ago’. It is a song of love and kindness of days gone by. When people sing it they take their neighbours’ hands, and move to the rhythm of the tune. This gives a feeling of love and friendship which can never stay in the past and is taken into the future.
