Notes This poem references the whistling language of the Aas people in the French Pyrenees, a language no longer spoken. The poem explores the usefulness of lesser-known languages: this whistling language was used to warn Jewish people of approaching danger, to assist lost World War II pilots across the Spanish border, and to pass along news of the French Résistance. Many of Ní Ghearbhuigh's poems included in this dataset can be discussed in the wider context of political and cultural rights.
