Bulgaria introduced Tuesday a double CD with revolutionary lyricist Geo Milev's September poem translated in 25 different languages, famous writer Leda Mileva told the bTV channel.

The CD contains English, French, Spanish, Russian, German and other versions of the poem, Mileva said.

Milev, who was born in 1895, was arrested at the age of 30 because of September's proletarian fervor, and then executed. His body is said to have been buried in a mass grave at capital Sofia's suburbs. However, the poem gained large popularity and is still on the high-school curriculum across Bulgaria.
