Bulgarian lyrics
Kazhi mi, kazhi, mladi le momko,
kazhi mi, alen Karamfil,
de ras os, ma momko, ras na por as na,
sila i hubost koj li ti dade?
Eh, eh, Karamfil,
partizanski majko, slaven komandir.
Az veren sio sum, sio na Delkana
i Rozovata Dolina
Sila i hubost dar mi dariha,
kak da se borja te me uciha.
Eh, eh, Karamfil...
Como le goro, goro hajduska
i ti graniten nash Dalkan,
dnes nije rasmem mladi junaci
na Karamfila verni potomci.
English translation
Tell me, tell me, young man,
tell me, red Karamfil
where did you grow up?
Who gave you strength and beauty?
Eh, eh, Karamfil,
partisan mother, true commander.
I am a true son, son of the Dalkan mountains
and the Valley of the Roses.
Strength and beauty they gave to me,
it was they who taught me how to fight.
Eh, eh, Karamfil...
Forest, forest of the Hajdnka,
and you, our granite Dalkan.
Today we are raising young heroes,
true descendants of Karamfil.
