If you want to add some cutomised text you should instead use Feed Dialog .

You can use the direct URL to invoke feed dialog:

https://www.facebook.com/dialog/feed?
 app_id={app-id}
 &display=popup
 &caption={caption}
 &link={link-to-share}
 &description={description}
 &redirect_uri={redirect-url-to-your-site}
