It is always immensely refreshing to listen to my 6-stringer idol and inspiration's guitar and voice - JT

This is a pretty strange video with some interesting concepts; I am assuming the vintage combat simulations are going way back to WWII and it portrays Ukrainians defending their lands.  Can anyone from Ukraine give more insight as to what they think the meanings are?

AC, 'a pretty strange video' is Andriy Pryymachenko's (a film, commercials and music video director) showreel.  The vintage combats simulations it contains are extracts from the video he directed for Veremiy's  'The Quiet Grove'

Thank-you for your input and the other video with all of the footage.  I am assuming, I hope correctly, that the vintage sword and shield combat depicted is a recreation of part of the history of Ukraine?  Also, I could not read the Cyrillic on the old maps and their cities, is there any chance you could tell me what cities were being fought over in the recreation?  Spasibo!

The events depicted in this video occurred during 3 different historical periods: the epoch of Kievan Rus (the scene of the sword and shield combat), the Cossack epoch (the areas shown on the map are Zaporizhia and a territory along the shores of the lower reaches of the Dnipro river, where Cossacks formed military fortifications known as Zaporizhian Sich) and WWII (the scene of Ukrainian Insurgent Army fighting against Nazi Germany for a Ukrainian independent state)

In one of their interviews, Veremiy spoke about this song. They said that The Quiet Grove is about national identity, it was written to express national pride and devotion to Ukraine and its soil sown with sufferings and wet with tears. They said they would be absolutely happy if this song encouraged at least one Ukrainian emigrant to return to his/her native 'quiet grove'

Spasibo!

My pleasure

Fascinating; thank-you so much for sharing the meanings of the video by Veremiy.  I believe that there are approximately 10 Million Ukrainians living abroad.  If at least one million of the best and brightest were to return to their homeland now, perhaps they could make the difference that is needed.

I was googling "Cossacks" after reading what you wrote above and found this interesting article:

This post and link is for those readers/members, those who prefer to read the site and not to post, etc who want to listen to and can appreciate  Russian quality music. Although of the 70-ies, it is unique in its romanticism. The title " Belovezskaya puscha" ( the Beloveshskaya game land in Belorussia).
(Haters of Russia, boorish backwoods population, as well as fans of rap, Syrus Miley and the like, are free not to bother to listen to the below).

Here 's the translation (I quickly made for now, non-poetic).
The light of the crystal dawn
The light rising over the world
I understand your age old sadness
Here's our parents' home
I hear the voice of ancestors calling
And here I'm flying back to you as a gray forest bird
Along a hidden path
I find my way to the brook
Where the deer drink sacred truth, sacred water
Amidst tall birch trees
I have warmed up my heart
And will take your ordained miracle making tune
Out into the world to console those who are living

After the fall of communism, the biggest mistake Boris Yeltsin's regime made was not to disband the KGB altogether. Instead it changed its name to the FSB and, to many observers, morphed into a gangster organisation, eventually headed by master criminal Vladimir Putin. - Gerard Batten
