Selected poems, songs, and letters by famous Scottish poet Robert Burns translated into modern English. Scottish poet and lyricist Robert Burns wrote most of his songs and poems in his original Scottish dialect, which some modern American readers might find to be a barrier to enjoying his work. This collection of translated poems, put together with love by Doris Minasian Phillips, aims to bring the genius of Robert Burns to the modern English reader. Coupled with quotations from his letters, this collection makes for an immersive reading experience. The poetry and songs of Robert Burns touch on themes of people and relationships, politics, wealth, and power. This collection includes pieces that emphasize Robert Burns’ deep empathy with the natural world and all its creatures. His insights and observations are still relevant after 200 years. Robert Burns is the original lyricist behind the song 'Auld Lang Syne' (For Old Time’s Sake) which is still sung around the world, and the author of the poem 'To A Mouse' which includes the famous quote, 'The best laid schemes of mice and men...' This collection of poetry will appeal to American fans of Robert Burns looking for a fresh take on their beloved poet. Readers who enjoy classic poetry and translated works will find the collection an ideal addition to their library.
