Yavorov is a poet-genius, selfless revolutionary and prominent public figure. For his contemporaries Yavorov’s personality is controversial, even unintelligible and mysterious. Critics and researchers call him “poet of the night”, “singer of the hopelessness, despair and suffering”. The tragic separation of the emigrants in the poem “Armenians” is expressed as a dramatic clash between two opposing conditions – weakness and strength. The motives for the riotous impulse and the sought oblivion take turns. Two tragic actions of the exiles – drinking and singing – express their unwillingness to fight. They represent the two paths where they seek an outlet. The first path is the path of wine. However, it turns out that it does not blunt the pain, but activates the will to fight, i.e. instead of the dreamt oblivion, the impulse for “bloody revenge” blazes up in their souls. It is expressed by the riotous song, marking the other path. However, the realization of the riotous impulse turns out to be impossible, because the emigrants are physically separated from their home country – the place, where they would be able to fulfill their riotous desires. Therefore both paths – of oblivion and fight – are doomed. The drama of the inability to find an outlet determines the major psychological conditions of the Armenians – tragic split mindedness between conciliation and relentlessness. The conflict has no resolution. This suggests the end of the poem bringing the lyrical action back to its starting point (“they drink… and sing”).
