Text (Chronicle of en:John Skylitzes):

English: "...The uprising in Bulgaria also broke out the same year (1040) in the following way. A Bulgarian, Peter, surnamed Delyan, and servant of an inhabitant of Constantinople, fled from the capital and began to roam all over Bulgaria. He reached Morava and Belgrade fortresses in Pannonia, situated on the banks of the Isterus, close to the lands of the King of Turkia. He declared that he was the son of Roman, Samuil's son and incited the Bulgarians, who had recently put their necks under the yoke and were strongly striving towards freedom. And so the people believed his words and declared him Tsar of Bulgaria..." (Macedonia - Documents And Materials, I., 19. (html))
Deutsch: "...In demselben Jahr (1040) brach auch der Aufstand in Bulgarien aus, und zwar auf folgende Weise. Der Bulgare Peter, mir dem Beinamen Deljan, Diener eines Einwohners von Konstantinopel, floh aus der Hauptstadt und begann in Bulgarien umherzustreifen. Er gelangte bis nach Morava und Belgrad, an den Ufern des Istros gelegenen Festungen in Panonien, in Nachbarschaft der Länder des Königs von Turkia. Er verkündete, daß er der Sohn Romans, des Sohnes Samuils, wäre und wiegelte das Volk der Bulgaren auf, das erst vor kurzem den Nacken unter das Joch gebugt hatte und heftig nach Freicheit strebte. Und die Leute glaubten seinen Worten und riefen ihn zum Zaren von Bulgarien aus..." (Makedonien - Eine Dokumentensammlung, I., 19.)
Български: "...През същата година (1040) избухнало и въстание в България по следния начин. Един българин, Петър, по прякор Делян и служител на един цариградчанин, избягал от столицата и започнал да скита из България. Той стигнал до Моравия и до Белград, които са крепости Панония, намиращи се по брега на Истър, в съседство със земите на краля на Туркия. Той разгласявал, че е син на Роман, сина на Самуил, и бунтувал народа на българите, които отскоро подложил ярема и силно се стремял към свобода. И тъй хората повярвали на думите му и го провъзгласили за цар на България..." (Македония - сборник от документи и материали, I., 19., стр. 63 (html))
