It used to be an old sailer tattoo but it is believed mainly to symbolize freedom, innocence, and eternity. The way the sparrow is pictured can define a lot about its meaning.

Thats wrong, most people mix up sparrow and swallow. Sparrow is a small brown land bird.  add a comment

Sparrows symbolize many different things. Sometime sparrows are used to symbolize freedom. They're also a symbol of finding your true love because when a sparrow finds its soul mate they stay with them until their life's end.

The sparrow started off (like a lot of tattoos in American culture) on sailors out at sea for months at a time. It started off as a symbol of hope. Another thing it could be a symbol for is a lost/deceased friend. But, now a days, most people with a sparrow tattoo probably got it for visual pleasure.
