[LV] Viens no pazistamakajiem 20. gadsimta dzivojušajiem rietumlibiešiem bija dzejnieks Uldrikis Kapbergs (Uli Kinkamegs) (1869.-1932.) no Mikeltorna, plašakai sabiedribai pazistams ari ka “Libiešu keninš”. Kapbergs, protams, nekads keninš nav bijis. Šo iesauku vinš ieguvis savu ipatnejo radikalo uzskatu del.
Jau 1920. gada vinš atteicies laut savam delam doties Latvijas armija, par ko vinš tika ielikts cietuma. Vinš atteicas ari maksat nodoklus Latvijas valstij un iznemt Latvijas pasi, uzskatidams, ka vinam ka libietim Latvijas valstij nav japaklaujas. Konfliktos ar Latvijas varas iestadem vinš nonaca vai ik gadu. Pedejais šads konflikts notika 1931. gada nogale, kad Kapbergs atteicas dot savu delu Andreju Latvijas armija un ar nuju uzbruka atbraukušajiem policistiem. Par to vinš 1932. gada 2. maija tika arestets un ta paša gada 1. junija mira Ventspils cietuma no sirdstriekas. Uldrikis Kapbergs davajis libiešu literaturai ne tikai pats savu dzeju un rakstus, bet ari delu Peteri Kinkamegu (1902.- 1972.), kurš ari ir daudzu interesantu dzejolu autors.

[ENG] Uldrikis Kapbergs (Uli Kinkamegs) (1869. – 1932.) from Mikeltornis is one of the most Livs famous poets in 20th century. He was known also as „King of Livs” because of his drustic opinions. Of course it was just a nickname. He was not a real king.
He didn’t allow his son to go to the Latvian army and that’s the reason why he was put in the prision. He declined to pay taxes to Latvian country and to have Latvian passport because he considered that he is Liv and didn’t have to obey to Latvian government. Almost every year he had conflicts with Latvian authorities. The last conflict was at the end of 1931. when Uldrikis declined to send his son in the Latvian army and attacked the policemen with the stick. He was arrested for this in the 2.May 1932. and died from infarct in Ventspils prision in the 1st June in the same year.
Uldrikis Kapbergs gave to the nation not only a lot of poems and articles to Livs literature but also his son Peteris Kinkamegs (1902.- 1972.) who is the author of many interesting poems, too.

Livu tauta mantojusi
sen šo zemi savu.
Ka gan lai nu ciešu klusu,
ka lai aizmirst varu?
/U.Kapbergs/

Livoma iend mäddõn vilaks
nei ku amad muntõn.
Kui siz laz ni vagiž pilog,
kui laz sieda unnõg?
