He is widely known for his ten-volume work, Irish Melodies, a collection of songs written by Moore and based on traditional Irish airs. Although famous for this collection of music, his poetry was as celebrated and poems such as "Lalla Rookh" assured him a prominent place among Irish poets. Moore died in 1852.
