Preprocess functions will allow you to change the text of the link as well. Call devel module's dpm() function to inspect the links array in the preprocess function http://drupalcontrib.org/api/function/dpm. Change the 'title' attribute of the link depending on $node->comment_count.

dpm() output: http://imagebin.ca/view/WdTNRdD.html

Maybe I am misunderstanding it or/and I did not explain good.
Is not it supposed to show the text "no comments" when there are not
comments and instead when some comments it shows the text together with
the icon?
I want something different, when no comments, it shows no text but only
the icon. When some comments, it shows both text and icons.
