Hino do município de Barra
Hinos de Cidades
Anthem of the municipality of Barra
Two centuries ago at the mouth of the Rio Grande
The settlement that Lancastro founded
It grew, progress expanded
Becoming a flourishing village
The Village of São Francisco das Chagas
Of Barra do Rio Grande do Sul
The most gentle of riverside lands
Dressed in a blue mantle like a princess
Hail land of illustrious men!
Move forward in the path you're on
To conquer new coats of arms
In education, work, and peace
Land of order and peace!
From gentle Indians forming the settlement
João Lancastro awaits the future
Land of order, of unparalleled peace
Under the watchful eye of the patron who guards it
Pernambuco was then a Captaincy
And rejoiced with the recent village
That passed under Bahia's domain
Continuing on its ascending path
From Serra da Canastra to Cachoeira
From Paulo Afonso a strong cry is heard
It's the voice of São Francisco in its course
Calling its children from south to north
Now a new century is announced
Let us be ready at the forefront
Of progress, people of Barra, with pride
Under the watchful eye of the patron who guards us
Blessed be the rising sun
Of the promising new centenary
Happy advent to our people
Transfigured in the glory of Tabor
It's not fair to stay asleep
On laurels of the past, oh Princess
The Prince of Progress, without cost
Will awaken you to a new life
