Shri Hanuman Stavan: Jai Bajrang Bali
Lyrics (with translation in English):
Pranavaun Pawana-kumaara khala bana paavaka jnaana ghana
Jaasu hridaya aagaara basahin Raama shara chaapa dhara.
(Ram Charit Manas 1.17)
[I offer my bow to the son of the Wind God, who is like a fire to the forest of bad people, and who is like
the rain cloud of wisdom, and in whose inner sanctum of heart resides Lord Ram holding the bow and
arrow.]

Atulita bala-dhaamam hema-shailaabh-deham
Danuja-vana-krishaanum; jnaaninaam-agraganyam
Sakal-guna nidhaanam vanaraanaam-adheesham
Raghupati-priya-bhaktam Vaata-jaatam namaami.
(Ram Charit Manas 5.3)
[Who is house of unparalleled strength; whose body glows like a golden mountain (called Sumeru); Who
is like the fire which can burn the forest like cluster of demons, and who is the foremost among the
knowledgeable and the wise; Who is the very wealth of all virtues, and who is the chief among all the
monkeys, who is treated by Ram as the most dear bhakta, [the elegant and most suitable messenger]
and who is the very son of Wind God, To such a Hanuman I offer my bow.]
Goshpadee-krita-vaareesham mashakee-krita-raakshasam
Raamaayana-mahaa-maalaa-ratnam vande Anilaatmajam.
(Valmiki 4.3.28)
[You crossed the ocean like as if it was only a puddle made by the paws of a cow. You were capable of
crushing all the demons as if they were mere house flies. You are the very jewel of the garland of the tale
of Rama's journey. I offer my bow to such a son of Anil, Wind God.]
Anjanaa-nandanam veeram Jaanakee-shoka-naashanam.
Kapeesham Aksha-hantaaram, vande Lankaa-bhayam-karam.
[I offer my bow to the brave son of Anjana Mai, who destroyed the grief of Sita Ma, who was the Lord of
monkeys, killer of Aksha, the son of Ravan, and who caused much fear among the residents of the city of
Lanka.]
Ullanghya sindhoh salilam saleelam; yah shoka-vahnim Janaka-aatmajaayaah
Aadaaya tenaiva dadaah Lankaam; namaami tam praanjalir-Aaanjaneyam
[Who crossed over the ocean's water in a mere play, and also took the fire of grief of Janaka's daughter
and burnt the city of Lanka by that fire. To him, the very son of Anjana Mai, I offer my bow with folded
hands.]
Manojavam Maaruta-tulya-vegam; jitendriyam buddhimataam varishtham
Vaataatmajam vaanara yutha mukhyam, Shri Raamdootam sharanam prapadye(Raamarakshaa
Stotram. 33)
[Who is as quick as the very mind and is as forceful as the Wind God Maruta; who has conquered his
senses, and who is the best among the wise people, who is the son of Wind God, and the leader of the
monkeys, to this messenger of Shri Ram, I bow my head.]
Aanjaneyam ati-paatala-aananam, kaanchanaadri-kamaneeya vigraham
Paarijaata-taru-moola-vaasinam; bhaavayaami Pavamaana-nandanam
[I meditate feeling-fully on this son of Wind God, who is the son of Anjana, who has a face like that of a
very red hue of Trumpet flower [known as Kaamadootee, or Madhu-dootee in Sanskrit. Actually a pale red
hue of Bignonia Suaveolens, or like that of the red Lodhra tree known as Rottberia Tinctoria], and whose
body is like that of a charming mountain of gold, and who sits under the tree of Paarijaata (the wish
fulfilling tree, also allegorically under the tree of hara singhara or Night Jasmine).]

Yatra yatra Raghu-naatha keertanam, tatra tatra krita-mastaka-aanjalim
Vashpa-vaari-pari-poorna-lochanam; Maarutim namat Rakshasaantakam
[Where ever the tale of Ram is recited there Hanuman sits with his hands folded to forehead and eyes full
of tears, and to such a Maaruti, the destroyer of demons, I offer my bows.]
