A Poem for Burns Night.

“A Man’s A Man for A’ That”,
by Robert Burns (1759 – 1796)

A prince can mak a belted knight,
A marquis, duke, an’ a’ that;
But an honest man’s abon his might,
Gude faith, he maunna fa’ that!
For a’ that, an’ a’ that,
Their dignities an’ a’ that;
The pith o’ sense, an’ pride o’ worth,
Are higher rank than a’ that.

Then let us pray that come it may,
(As come it will for a’ that,)
That Sense and Worth, o’er a’ the earth,
Shall bear the gree, an’ a’ that.
For a’ that, an’ a’ that,
It’s coming yet for a’ that,
That Man to Man, the world o’er,
Shall brothers be for a’ that.
Portrait of Robert Burns by Alexander Nasmyth (1787)
Robert Burns was born on the 25th January and his birthday
is celebrated by Scots around the world as “Burns Night”.
