Burns Night is upon us and Scots will be preparing to take part in a supper celebrating the country's most famous Bard.
Even hundreds of years after his passing, Robert Burns remains one of Scotland's literary treasures. The writer has created hundreds of works that are still celebrated today.
Regarded as the national poet of Scotland, Burns' writings are widely regarded for incorporating the traditional Scots language. One of his most famous titles, "Auld Lang Syne", is sung around the world on Hogmanay.
