As a sign of gratitude to the Estonian people for all their help and support, Ukrainians sang 'Ta lendab mesipuu poole' on Independence Day. Juhan Liiv's beloved poem Ta lendab mesipuu poole (He Flies Toward the Beehive) has much meaning for Estonians as they lived in exile or under the Soviet occupation. Like the bee that leaves the beehive and later returns, a human being can also go away and come back home. Ukrainians can also relate to this and one day they will return home, once the occupiers are defeated.
