FC Barcelona Anthem – El Cant del Barca
What is that song that FC Barcelona play every after game at the Camp Nou?
Answer
The song is called El Himne or Cant del Barça and here’s the first verse in Catalan followed by the translation in English.
Tot el camp
es un clam
som la gent Blau Grana
Tan se val d’on venim
Si del sud o del nord
ara estem d’acord
estem d’acord
una bandera ens agermana.
Blau Grana al vent
un crit valent
tenim un nom
el sap tothom
Barça!, Barça!, Baaaarça!!!!
Jugadors
Seguidors
tots unit fem força
son molts d’anys plens d’afanys
son molts gols que hem cridat
i s’ha demostrat
s’ha demostrat
que mai ningú no ens podrà tòrcer
Blau Grana al vent
un crit valent
tenim un nom
el sap tothom
Barça!, Barça!, Baaaarça!!!!
In English
The whole stadium
Makes a noise
We are the blaugrana people
It doesn’t matter where we come
Whether it’s from north or south
All of us are in agreement
A flag makes us brothers
Blaugrana to the wind
A valiant shout
We’ve got a name that everyone knows
Barça! Barça! BAAAAAAAAAARÇA!
OK. I know the translation isn’t brilliant but you get the general idea. It’s really rousing stuff and we all love singing at Camp Nou or even in the bar whilst we’re watching the game. Needless to say, we sang it a lot last season.
Anyway, here’s a video of the song. Feel free to sing along.
