Among this jumble of images on his left arm are:

Lego

A yellow Lego head symbolising his single Lego House.

Snowflake and Angel Wings

A snowflake in reference to touring with Snow Patrol in 2012, and angel wings to refer back to a lyric from his single The A-Team.

Play, Pause, Stop, Rewind

To reflect his love of music.

Pawprint

Sheeran's very first tattoo, with apparently no deeper significance attached.

Maple leaf

Inked in tribute to his Canadian fans.

Damien Rice

A tattoo inked from the autograph of Damien Rice, which he gave to Sheeran when he was 11. Sheeran has described Rice as his musical idol.

Festina Lente

Latin for "hurry slowly", a phrase passed down to Sheeran from his uncle.
