Holy Willie's Prayer is a poem by Robert Burns. It was written in 1785 and first printed anonymously in an eight page pamphlet in 1799.
It is considered the greatest of all Burns' satirical poems, and one of the best ever satires by any poet.[1]
It is written in the Scots dialect, but is accessible to most modern English readers.
