तेहि के कारज सकल शुभ, सिद्ध करैं हनुमान॥
सुन लीजै प्रभु अरज हमारी॥
आतुर दौरि महा सुख दीजै॥
सुरसा बदन पैठि बिस्तारा॥
मारेहु लात गई सुरलोका॥
सीता निरखि परमपद लीन्हा॥
अति आतुर जमकातर तोरा॥
लूम लपेटि लंक को जारा॥
जय जय धुनि सुरपुर नभ भई॥
कृपा करहु उर अन्तर्यामी॥
आतुर ह्वै दुःख करहु निपाता॥
सुर-समूह-समरथ भटनागर॥
बैरिहि मारु बज्र की कीले॥
महाराज प्रभु दास उबारो॥
बज्र गदा हनु विलम्ब न लावो॥
ॐ हुं हुं हुं हनु अरि उर शीशा॥
राम दूत धरु मारु जाय के॥
दुःख पावत जन केहि अपराधा॥
नहिं जानत हौं दास तुम्हारा॥
तुम्हरे बल हम डरपत नाहीं॥
येहि अवसर अब केहि गोहरावौं॥
शंकर सुवन वीर हनुमंता॥
राम सहाय सदा प्रतिपालक॥
अग्नि बेताल काल मारी मर॥
राखु नाथ मरजाद नाम की॥
ताकी शपथ बिलंब न लावो॥
सुमिरत होय दुसह दुःख नाशा॥
यहि अवसर अब केहि गोहरावौं॥
पाँय परौं कर जोरि मनाई॥
ॐ हनु हनु हनु हनु हनुमंता॥
ॐ सं सं सहमि पराने खल दल॥
सुमिरत होय आनंद हमरो॥
ताहि कहो फिरि कौन उबारै॥
हनुमत रक्षा करै प्रान की॥
ताते भूत-प्रेत सब कापैं॥
ताके तन नहिं रहै कलेशा॥
तेहि के कारज सकल शुभ, सिद्ध करैं हनुमान॥
A little about the Bajrang Baan
The Bajrang Baan is read when a person needs Hanuman ji quickly, in fear, in negativity, in some heavy sankat that will not lift. Its lines carry beej mantras like om hanu hanu hanu hanumant hathile and call on him to strike down what troubles the devotee and to guard his life. That is why elders say to read it with real faith and a clean heart, not in a hurry or a casual mood.
Like every paath, it is not a substitute for your own effort and good conduct. What it gives is courage, protection, and a settled mind. In most homes it is read after the Hanuman Chalisa, and along with the Sankat Mochan Hanuman Ashtak.
How to read it
Tuesday and Saturday are Hanuman ji's days. Sit before his picture or murti, light a diya and dhoop if you like, and read the whole Bajrang Baan once with full dhyan. Morning after a bath is best. Shraddha matters more than counting.
