I admire Dr. Rory Finin so much for his devotion to my motherland. What he is doing for Ukraine is unparalleled. Good luck, Rory!

Olen todellakin yrittänyt kuunnella Ukrainalaista musiikkia, ja tutkia Tjetsenkoa, usein katkeaa internetyhteys. Jokatapauksessa, kaikkea hyvää teille ystäville, rakkaudella, Eira.

I hope Ukraine finally breaks totally free from russia and remains free

[@DmitroBoston]

Thank you for this awesome insight.

Thank you for recording this. I showed this to my boyfriend to explain who Shevchenko is.

[@dmytrognativ2163]

Wonderful video! We need more like that!

[@catnap387]

Excellent! Can we have more of these types of presentations on Ukrainian topics from Dr Finnin please.

[@SerghijBuzko]

At that time 40 years had passed after Russian empire kills most cossacks and destroys their state - the last symbol of Ukrainian culture, force and "volya". There were no signs that, after 600 years of battles for their freedom, Ukrainian nation was still alive. Until he revives the resistance over again. He rises from the bottom of the people and his works form a new beginning, which later renews this ancient spirit of "volya" to fight for your land and freedom.

Shevchenko represents the heart and soul of the Ukrainian people. A resilient individual and a gift to our people.🇺🇦❤

[@Eowynnofrohan]

So it looks like there is a movie about him! Possibly any with English subtitles? I am just learning about him and want to know more

А нумо знову віршувать.
Звичайне, нишком. Нумо знову,
Поки новинка на основі,
Старинку божу лицювать.
А сиріч... як би вам сказать,
Щоб не збрехавши... Нумо знову
Людей і долю проклинать.
Людей за те, щоб нас знали
Та нас шанували.
Долю за те, щоб не спала
Та нас доглядала.
А то бач, що наробила:
Кинула малого
На розпутті, та й байдуже,
А воно, убоге,
Молодеє, сивоусе,-
Звичайне, дитина,-
І подибало тихенько
Попід чужим тином
Аж за Урал. Опинилось
В пустині, в неволі...
Як же тебе не проклинать,
Лукавая доле
Не проклену ж тебе, доле,
А буду ховатись
За валами. Та нищечком
Буду віршувати,
Нудить світом, сподіватись
У гості в неволю
Із-за Дніпра широкого
Тебе, моя доле!
[Перша половина 1848,
Орська кріпость]

Thank you for this; I am ashamed to say that I know very little about our National Poet

As American I am only learning about him today. Since the war I'm trying to learn more about Ukraine.
