Is it "senhor do bonfim da Bahia", or "senhor do bonfim no Bahia"? (I edited with "da"

SO, may be it could be a "souvenir" from this church too? in which case I'd add "Nosso" before "senhor"...
I think it could be also what is writen at some place from Salvador de Bahia, and which is very visited by tourists : (I found that here)

"Les premiers pas ne se font pas seuls. Alors que mes yeux découvrent au loin la Baie de tous les Saints, dans laquelle Amerigo Vespucci serait entré le 1er novembre 1501, un bracelet s’est déjà posé sur mon poignet. « C’est un porte-bonheur, explique un jeune garçon. Un nœud correspond à un vœu, tu peux en faire quatre. » Pour obtenir la protection d’un Saint de la Cité. Sur le petit morceau de tissu, on peut lire « Lembraça do Senhor do Bonfim da Bahia »."

"Lembrança" without cedilla should be either edited or put in meaning only.

I have a problem here because I have difficulties in doing searches here at Cucumis. My (very short) experience tells me that the search can de done according to the title. In this translation the title is something else than the real translation > please if you correct translation I think you should correct the title too....(or maybe there is a way to search that I don't know of)

Please, also the capital letters!
