| Paratext Text | (Ar léamh dom gur loiteadh an crann cáiliúil úd i mbrothall an tsamhraidh 2004.) |
| Notes | As the paratext indicates, this poem focuses on the Gernikako Arbola, an oak tree in Guernica that died in 2004 heatwave. The human rights connection is with the tree's history - it symbolizes traditional freedoms for the Biscayan people, and by extension of the Basque people as a whole. It survived Nazi bombings during WWII. |
