This was an overdue post but i think i should wrote something before i totally forgot. Every year on 25th Jan, there will be celebration for Burn's birthday which called Burn Night. So who the hell is this Burn? He was Scottish poet which some of his poem become lyric for the song. Among the famous was Auld Lang Syne which will be sing during new year. He wrote poem about everything that happen in his life even as silly as Haggis poem. So during this night, the organiser will recite some of Burn's famous poem, Haggis will be served and it will end with everyone sing the Auld Lang Syne together. I joined of the meet-up group to celebrate this night. It just simple night but it does open my eye on some of thing. I just knew, Scottish English and Gaelic is two different language.. Some of Burn's poem is really good. I like his poem called A red, read rose and Ae Fond Kiss. It so pure and moving.. or maybe because these easier to understand compare to other poem :p... One of snippet from Ae Fond Kiss that i like and you can feel his pain..
Had we never lov'd sae kindly
Had we never lov'd sae blindly
Never met or never parted
We had ne'er been broken-hearted.
Mungkin patut buat poem jugak .. hahaha nk kalahkan mono. :)
