Explanatory Notes: Robert Burns, born 1759, became Scotland’s "national poet", and a cultural icon at home and among Scottish diaspora around the world. In his short life - he died at age 37 - he wrote hundreds of well-loved poems and songs; the most famous is Auld Lang Syne, traditionally sung on Hogmanay (New Year's Eve). Robbie Burns Day is celebrated on his birthday, January 25, often with a Burns Night supper.
Burns' best-loved poems include "To a Mouse", "To a Louse", "Tam o' Shanter", "Parcel o' Rogues", and "Address to a Haggis".
