  This is the first poem of Robert Burns.
  
  O once I lov'd a bonnie lass.
  An' aye I love her still,
  An' whilst that virtue warms my breast
  I'll love my handsome Nell.
   As bonnie lasses I hae seen.
  And mony full as braw,
  But for a modest gracefu' mein
  The like I never saw. . .
  
  
  
  Я прежде девушку любил
  И до сих пор люблю.
  Нет, никогда б я не забыл
  Нел славную мою.
  Красавиц много видел я,
  Им не было числа,
  Но только милая моя
  Изящна и мила…

  I Love My Jean
  
  Of a' the airts the wind can blaw,
  I dearly like the West;
  For there the bony Lassie lives,
  The Lassie I lo'e best:
  There's wild-woods grow, and rivers row,
  And mony a hill between;
  But day and night my fancy's flight
  Is ever wi' my Jean.
  
  I see her in the dewy flowers,
  I see her sweet and fair;
  I hear her in the tunefu' birds,
  I hear her charm the air:
  There's not a bony flower that springs
  By fountain, shaw, or green;
  There's not a bony bird that sings
  But minds me o' my Jean.

  Роберт Бёрнс родился 25 января 1759 года в селе Аллоуэй (три километра к югу от города Эр, графство Эйршир), в семье крестьянина Уильяма Бёрнесса (William Burness, 1721—1784). В 1765 году его отец взял в аренду хозяйство Маунт-Олифант, и мальчику пришлось работать наравне со взрослыми, терпя голод и другие лишения. В 1781 году Бёрнс вступил в масонскую ложу; масонство достаточно сильно повлияло на его творчество. С 1783 года Роберт начинает сочинять стихи на эйширском диалекте. В 1784 году умирает отец, и после ряда неудачных попыток заняться сельским хозяйством Роберт с братом Гилбертом переезжает в Моссгил. В 1786 году выходит первая книга Бёрнса, Poems, Chiefly in the Scottish dialect («Стихотворения преимущественно на шотландском диалекте»). К начальному периоду творчества также относятся: «Джон Ячменное Зерно» (John Barleycorn, 1782), «Весёлые нищие» («The Jolly Beggars», 1785), «Молитва святоши Вилли» («Holy Willie’s Prayer»), «Святая ярмарка» («The Holy Fair», 1786). Поэт быстро становится известен по всей Шотландии.
