    • 1921, Мара Иванова Белчева, Венеца на дните [Veneca na dnite]‎:
      И пак ний под питафето покрито
      со здравец, карамфил и жълт шебой,
      и пак, до мене братчето ми свито,
      провираме се пак и пак – безброй –

      и дето шествито спре; блажени
      кога то приближи до наший праг …
      Очи горящи, личица червени
      – свещици трепнали в светия мрак.
      I pak nij pod pitafeto pokrito
      so zdravec, karamfil i žǎlt šeboj,
      i pak, do mene bratčeto mi svito,
      provirame se pak i pak – bezbroj –

      i deto šestvito spre; blaženi
      koga to približi do našij prag …
      Oči gorjašti, ličica červeni
      – sveštici trepnali v svetija mrak.
