🇦🇲 The song talks about a wandering Fedayi fighting for his ideals and principles despite all.
The Fedayi (W. Armenian: Ֆէտայի Fedayi; E. Armenian: Ֆիդայի Fidayi), also known as the Armenian irregular units or Armenian militia, were Armenian civilians who voluntarily left their families to form self-defense units and irregular armed bands in reaction to the mass murder of Armenians and the pillage of Armenian villages by criminals, Kurdish gangs, Turkish forces, and Hamidian guards during the reign of Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hamid II in late 19th and early 20th centuries, known as the Hamidian massacres. Their ultimate goal was always to gain Armenian autonomy (Armenakans) or independence (Dashnaks, Hunchaks) depending on their ideology and the degree of oppression visited on Armenians.

2:05 - 2:14 The Armenian text shown in this part of the video may not be correct (as I wasn't able to get the correct Armenian lyrics for that part), the english translation however is.
=======================================
Full of wounds, I am a fedayee,
Wandering, I have no home,
Instead of my lover, I embrace my gun,
Nowhere have I had a peaceful sleep.
The mourning and weeping of the bloodied land,
Called me from my cloistered life.
The love of my tortured fatherland,
Made me unafraid of danger.
I was dubbed a fedayee,
I became a soldier of an ideal:
Let the rivers of blood I have shed,
Be an example to the Armenian soldier.
I was crucified as a fedayee
For our sacred principles,
Let the blood that I have shed,
Strengthen the Armenian soldier.
