Chants to San Fermin

The closure has a particularly emotional preamble. This is the time when the runners gathered a few meters from the Corrals where the bulls are locked, raise their rolled newspapers and chant before the image of the saint, placed in a niche in Santo Domingo´s Hill. In the deepest silence you can only hear the following song: "A San Fermín pedimos, por ser nuestro patrón, nos guíe en el encierro dándonos su bendición. Entzun arren San Fermin zu zaitugu patroi zuzendu gure oinak entzierro hontan otoi" This is the Spanish version and in a nutshell, they are asking to San Fermin to guide & help them while running in front of the bulls.

The basque version would be: “Entzun leased San Fermin zu zaitugu patroi zuzendu gure oinak entzierro Hontan Otoi.". The song is done in Castilian and Basque. At the end cries Live San Fermin! The soon is finished by: Viva San Fermin! Gora San Fermin! This strophe is sung as follows in three consecutive occasions: first time, 5´, 3´ & 1´ before 8 am (running of the bulls start at 8:00),
