El Cant del Barça

The FC Barcelona Anthem (in Catalan with English translation)

Every FC Barcelona supporter should know the words to El Cant del Barça so here is a video of the official recording with the words in Catalan and a translation of the lyric into English.

El Cant del Barça is the official name of FC Barcelona’s rousing anthem with words by Josep Maria Espinàs and Jaume Picas and music by Manuel Valls.

Although the song has a very traditional feel, it was actually only written in 1974 to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the History of FC Barcelona..

Below the video, you’ll find the full lyric in Catalan so you can sing along and then the translation into English so that you understand what you are singing about.

I really think you can’t claim to be a proper FC Barcelona fan if you don’t know the words to song, so get practising in preparation for your next visit to Camp Nou!
