‘Gráinne’
This design is a combination of lyrics from an old Irish song and an Irish proverb. The song ‘Múinfimid do Ghráinne’ is about the desire for a
revival of the Irish language, and was written by poet Pádraig Ó Miléadha, born in 1877 in the Déise, Co. Waterford. An important song writer in the area, his songs are still being sung today.
The last line of the design is a proverb about hope and courage, that even the smallest deed can have a great outcome:
‘Is beag an splanc a lasann tine mhór’
‘Even the smallest spark can light the greatest fire’
Designed and Screen-printed by Shona McDonald in Co. Waterford using water-based inks, onto 100% organic cotton Earth-Positive t-shirts.
