Like those which once were charmed by the refrain | B |

And Haemus' crags and the wild folk of Thrace | A |

Ah would to cure the dearth of these our days | A |

Fresh fire to set their frozen hearts ablaze | A |

Our people in one nation then combined | C |

Would see that feuds no longer did increase | A |
His strains would bring the rule of joy and peace | A |
Where tempests roar and nature is unkind | C |
