Hovhannes Tomanian has rightly been called the Armenian national poet, because in his poetry no other orator has been so influenced by Armenian proverbs, sayings, legends, and folklore. Tomanian's poetic nature, in this regard, has been nourished by various sources: first, from the fertile mind of his mother who had recited all those stories and tales to him as a child, second, from the rich memories of the villagers who had been with him since his childhood and who always cherished the memory of that playful seven-year-old cowboy who had grown up to be a poet many years later, and finally, from the study and practice he himself had done in Armenian literature.

هوهانس تومانيان را به حق شاعر ملي ارمني ناميده‌اند، زيرا در شعر هيچ سخنوري جز او تاثير متل‌ها و مثل‌ها و افسانه‌ها و ادبيات افواهي ارمني تا اين پايه نيست. طبع شاعرانه تومانيان، در اين رهگذر، از سرچشمه‌هاي گوناگون سيراب شده است: نخست، از ذهن پربار مادري كه آن‌ همه قصه‌ها و حكايات را به هنگام كودكي در گوش او فروخوانده بود، ديگر از حافظه سرشار روستايياني كه به روزگار خردسالي با او درآميخته بودند و همواره ياد آن گاوچران بازي‌گوش هفت‌ساله را كه سال‌ها بعد شاعري بزرگ شده بود عزيز مي‌داشتند و سرانجام از مطالعه و ممارستي كه خود در ادبيات ارمني كرده بود.
