    • 1970, Anton Buttigieg, “It-Tallab”, in Fl-Arena:
      Wara l-bibien,
      fit-tul tat-toroq twal,
      batejt
      il-għeja
      il-qtigħ ta’ qalb,
      batejt fuq kollox il-mistħija;
      iżda ġarrabt ukoll
      il-ferħ u l-għaxqa
      li kull tallab iħoss
      x’ħin jasal wisq għajjien bil-ħorġa f’idu
