Hino de Santa Inês - MA

Once in the Pindaré valley
Before the villages and sugarcane fields
The Indian Amanajé prevailed
Among the shadows of the babassu palms

It gained more prominence afterwards
For fishing, agriculture, and livestock
And for the example of Dona Inez Galvão
Among other extraordinary teachers

Brave people, beloved land!
Hospitable home of peace
Oh Santa Inês, honored
In this Brazilian soil

Its culture is traditional
From the 'bumba-boi' to the June festivities
From the 'terreiro' to the pride of carnival
From 'vaquejada' to the 'festa do divino'

Today, a slender and exemplary city
With an active road axis
And the railway bringing prosperity
With commerce to this proud people
