"Kossuth Lajos azt �zente,
elfogyott a regimentje.
Ha m�g egyszer azt �zeni,
mindny�junknak el kell menni,
�ljen a magyar szabads�g,
�ljen a haza !

Esik es� karik�ra,
Kossuth Lajos kalapj�ra.
Valah�ny csepp esik r�ja,
Annyi �ld�s sz�lljon r�ja,
�ljen a magyar szabads�g,
�ljen a haza ! "http://www.ks-studio.hu/sa/lyrics/00Mtsz/dal0504.html

Upon his death:

"Ott voltam �n mostan�ban,
Kossuth Lajos szob�j�ban.
Áldott kez�t megfoghattam
Élö szavát hallgathattam,
�ljen a haza ! "
