The life of this man was bound up closely with Polack. In Polack Hienadz’ Buraŭkin started his writing career. More than once he inscribed poems to this city.

H.Buraŭkin’s lyrics were full of sincerity and heartiness. That was why his poems were set to music and had become popular hit songs. A “Lullaby” by Hienadz’ Buraŭkin is played from the TV screens for the little Belarusians every evening.
