The nightingale is a symbol for immortality as well as beauty. It is quite possible that a tattoo of a nightingale could mean either of these to its wearer.
Some literary devices in "The Nightingale and the Rose" by Oscar Wilde include irony, symbolism, and personification. Irony is evident in how the nightingale sacrifices its life for love, only for the rose to be discarded unappreciated. Symbolism is seen in the colors used to represent love, sacrifice, and materialism. Personification occurs as the nightingale is given human-like qualities and emotions.
As a tattoo, the symbolism of the nightingale most likely would be related to the tattoo-wearer's familiarity with romanticist poetry and visual art. In poetry and visual art the nightingale symbolizes love, loss of a love (usually through tragic death, think Romeo & Juliet), longing for love, things like that. For some, I've heard associations with restlessness/insomnia (i.e. discontent with love) because it was believed that the nightingale sang all night long. Hope this helps . . .
"The Nightingale and the Rose" by Oscar Wilde uses several literary techniques, including personification (giving human qualities to animals and objects), symbolism (where the nightingale symbolizes selfless love), and allegory (the story's deeper moral lesson about sacrifice and the nature of love). These techniques help convey the themes of love, sacrifice, and the harsh realities of the world.
