BOW BEFORE THIS WALL, FELLOW BULGARIANS! IT CONTAINS THE SUFFERING OF OUR PEOPLE. THIS MEMORIAL HAS BEEN ERECTED FOR OUR COMPATRIOTS, VICTIMS OF THE COMMUNIST TERROR: THOSE WHO LOST THEIR LIVES, THOSE WHO VANISHED WITHOUT A TRACE, THOSE WHO WERE SHOT BY THE SO-CALLED "PEOPLE'S TRIBUNAL". IT COMMEMORATES THE CONCENTRATION CAMP PRISONERS, THE POLITICAL PRISONERS, THOSE WHO WERE INTERNED, THOSE SUBJECTED TO POLITICAL REPRESSION, AND THEIR ILL-FATED FAMILIES AND RELATIVES.
MAY THE MEMORY OF THE INNOCENTLY SHED BLOOD BURN IN OUR HEARTS LIKE AN ETERNAL FLAME. MAY THE PAST NEVER REPEAT ITSELF!

LORD, GIVE PEACE TO THE SOULS OF YOUR MARTYRS, GRANT THEM YOUR JUSTICE. ACCEPT THEM AS OUR GUARDIANS, HOLY AND IMMORTAL - NOW AND FOREVER. AMEN.
