    • 1842, Juan Manuel Pintos, Meu querido pai:
      Meu querido Pai
      Non s’azañe prego
      S’esta carta escribo
      Posta nestes versos:
      Nin tome cabuxo
      S’ô castellan deixo
      Por falar na fala
      Dos nosos galegos,
      Qu’inda nela podo
      Sin poñer un erro
      Espricar bem craro
      Tod’os meus conceutos.
      My beloved father
      I ask you not to anger
      if this letter I write
      put into these verses
      neither get upset
      if Castilian I left
      to speak the tongue
      of our Galicians,
      because in it I can,
      without making a mistake,
      explain crystal clear
      all of my concepts.
