Hanumath stotram
(Prayer to Hanuman)
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
Akshadhi rakshasa haram, Dasa kanda darpa,
Nirmoolanam, Raghuvarangri saroja bhaktham,
Seetha vishahya Ghana dukha nivarakam tham,
Vayo sutha, galitha bhanu maham namami. 1
I salute Him, who
shines like the Sun,
Who killed Rakshasas
like Aksha,
Who destroyed the
pride of the ten headed,
Who is the devotee of
lotus feet of Rama,
Who removed the great
sorrow of Sita,
And who is the son of
Wind God.
Maama pasya pasya dayaya nija drushti pathair,
Maam raksha raksha paritho ripu dukha punjaan,
Vasyam kuru trijagatham vasudadhi paanaam,
May dehi dehi mahatheem vasudhaam sriyam cha. 2
Please see, see me
with real feeling of mercy,
Please save , save me
from the hands of enemies,
Make my slave the
three worlds and their kings,
And please give ,
give me wealth and fame.
Aapadbhyo raksha sarvathra, aanjaneya namosthuthe,
Bandhanam cchedhaya muktha kapi varya , namosthuthe. 3
Salutations to son of
Anjana, please always save me from danger,
Salutations o the
great monkey, please cut of my bondage and release me.
May dehi sampadho nithyam trilochana, namosthuthe,
Dushta rogaan hana hana Rama dhootha namosthuthe. 4
Salutations to the
three eyed one, please daily save from dangers,
Salutations to the
emissary of Rama, kill, kill serious diseases.
Uchataya ripoon sarvaan, mohanam kuru bhoobhujaam,
Vidweshino maaraya thwam trinethrathmaka sarvada. 5
Always, Cast spell on
all my enemies, make all kings love me,
And Kill all those
who hate me, Oh, son of three eyed one.
Sanjeeva parvathoddhara, mama dukhaan nivaraya,
Ghoraan upadhravan nasaya, Aksha suranthaka. 6
He who carried
sanjeevini mountain, please remove my sorrows,
Killer of the asura
called Aksha, destroy awesome troubles.
Markatesa mahothsaha, Sarva soka vinasaka,
Sathroon samhara maam raksha,
sriyam dathwacha maam hara.
7
Lord of all monkeys
who is exuberant, kill all my sorrows,
Save me by killing
all my enemies and protect me by giving wealth.
Evam sthuthwa hanumantham, nara sradha samanwitha,
Puthra pouthradhi sahitha, sarvaan kamaan vapunuyath. 8
If men pray Lord
Hanuman thus with devotion,
He would realize all
his wishes along with his sons and grandsons.
