СТИХОТВОРЕНИЯ

Сеятели добри,
Поборници безстрашни,
За наш’те правдини!
И ваш’та добра памѣть
Отъ родъ ще мине въ родъ,
До катъ въ свѣта живѣе
Бѫлгарския народъ
Бѫлгария на свойте
Юначни синове
Вѣнци отъ лавръ зеленъ
Ще да имъ исплете
И съ тѣхъ ще украси тя
Хубавите чела
На сички, що паднаха
Вѫвъ бой за свобода.

11 Апр. 1877.
