The Anthem

Anthem

 

The ‘Cant del Barça’ song was composed in 1974 and is now the Club’s anthem. It was written for the Club’s 75th anniversary by the writers Josep M. Espinàs and Jaume Picas, with music by Manuel Valls, and is still completely relevant.

It is a strong, rhythmic anthem that sings of assertiveness (tenim un nom, el sap tothom / we have a name everyone knows) and above all integration (som la gent blaugrana, tant se val d’on venim / we’re the blue and garnet supporters, no matter where we come from; una bandera ens agermana / one flag unites us as brothers) and perseverance (s’ha demostrat que mai ningú no ens podrà tòrcer / and we have shown that no one can ever break us).

The new version of the anthem was recorded in 2023 by the Vallès Symphony Orchestra, the Orfeó Català choral society and the Cor Jove youth choir. This new version is faithful to the essence of the original score and lyrics, but is better quality, with enhanced orchestration and vocals.

 

Tot el camp
és un clam
som la gent blaugrana.
Tant se val d’on venim
si del sud o del nord
ara estem d’acord, estem d’acord,
una bandera ens agermana.
Blaugrana al vent
un crit valent
tenim un nom
el sap tothom:
Barça, Barça, Barça!

Jugadors
Seguidors
tots units fem força.
Són molts anys plens d’afanys,
són molts gols que hem cridat
i s’ha demostrat, s’ha demostrat,
que mai ningú no ens podrà tòrcer.
Blaugrana al vent
un crit valent
tenim un nom
el sap tothom:
Barça, Barça, Barça!
