The poet, while being heavily ill, thought that he was about to die. Feeling the grieve toward the calamity of his Fatherland - Ukraine, he writes this poem as legacy to Ukrainians. Shevchenko tells people of Ukraine that even death won't make him leave his beloved land to go to God until he sees them throwing off the shackles of captivity, bringing Ukraine to its independence.
