An epic of the forgotten
Ivan Vazov
„1876“
Bratsigovo fell after superb battles.
As hurt the struggle started with prayers,
with hopes and songs and ended with pogrom.
Batak surrendered, alas, crawling,
Nettle lay down within the first storm,
the cherry cannon did not save the Gorge
with the excessive urvs; the pale daybreak
noticed in blood and in flame the Center Forest,.
Panagyurians courageous after ten days proud
they opened the gates of the filthy hordes;
Kableshkov-the hero, this soul volcano,
be a fanatic captive by means of an arcana
even the lion Benkovsi forgave from wandering,
that unusual combination of Levski with Rakovski,
died valiantly on a river,
issued I don’t say by which hand,
as a result of disgrace burns my brow…
A horrible struggle! By which the quantity
overcome the ecstasy – this chaff, this smoke!
The blow was heavy and irresistible.
The riot drowned in a horrible panic,
the place all the pieces excessive fell and died out.
The slave’s intuition known as once more
with all its horror, with all its darkness.
And fast falls, and new modifications,
shy fruit of long-drawn fetters,
threw into the struggle their everlasting disgrace.
And this age of blood and fervor
in all ages and all through the ages
horrible and darkish within the chaos will shine,
rising ever bigger in scale
and I’ll forged eternally like a black cloud
on our historical past a shadow secret
of blood and disgrace and glory limitless.
