Melina MacLean discusses the impact of Sorley MacLean’s poem, Ban-Ghàidheal, on her. Melina NicIlleathain le iomradh air an dàn 'Ban-Ghàidheal' aig Somhairle MacIlleathain.

Melina Maclean feels that the poem Ban-Ghàidheal by Sorley Maclean speaks to her on many levels. She reads the poem and talks about how she relates to the image of a woman carrying a creel of seaweed as her own ancestors would also have done.

Chì Melina NicIlleathain mòran san dàn 'Ban-Ghàidheal' aig Somhairle MacIlleathain. Ga leughadh, tha i a’ toirt iomradh air an dàimh a th’aice ri ìomhaigh boireannaich le cliabh-feamad air a druim – mar a bhiodh tric aig a sinnsireachd fhèin.
