बिभ्राणं हेममौंजीं करधष्तकमलं नागयज्ञोपवीतं
धीरं सर्पेंदुमौलिं वरमणिमुकुटं कुण्डलाभासगण्डं
भीमाकारं त्रिनेत्रं मम शुभफलदं वायुपुत्रं नमामि।। 21

Dhyānam(Meditation)

‘The One with the radiance of a ten million rising Suns, the One sitting beautifully in the veerāsana (great warrior) posture, One wearing golden waist band made from Asiatic grass (Saccharummunja), holding a serpant in hand, wearing a sacred thread (yagńyōpaveet) formed with a snake, the firm One, wearing a snake and Moon on the head, One wearing a golden crown studded with best precious stones, One with cheeks shining due to the radiance of ear ornaments worn, One with a ferocious form, One with three eyes, the One who bestows auspicious on me; to such a Son of Wind God, I bow.’ (21)

जपे पदं समुच्चार्य विनियोगस्ततः परम्।। 23

‘Ōm’ is the seed, ‘swāhā’ is the power, ‘Hanumān’ is the key. Then one has to announce that ‘mama sarvābheeşţasiddhyardhē’ (= for fulfillment of all my wishes). (23)

क्रमशो मूलमन्त्रेण षडङ्गन्यासमाचरेत्
अत्रैव चोदाहरणमितिहासं पुरातनम्।। 24

Reaching the Ayōdhya city, once the greatest of great Raghurāma, said so to the mightily powerful, courageous, great warrior and best among the monkey warriors Hanumān. (28)

भवदीयोपकाराणां हृदये परिधावताम्।। 29

‘Hanumān! Possessor of vast intelligence! Possessor of great strength and courage! My heart is full of the good deeds done by you for me. (29)

इतिकर्तव्यतामूढ़ः सीताध्यानपरायणः
अहं ममानुजष्चैव भवता प्रापितौ धष्तिम्।। 31

When I was frightened initially on abduction of Sītā from beautiful the deep forest where no human being treads, unable to do anything and thinking of Sītā alone, myself and my brother Lakşmaņa got courage from you. (31)

त्वयैवावहितो नूनं सिन्धुमध्ये प्लवो यथा।। 32

Then you were instrumental in providing, by word and by heart an equal friendship with Sugreeva that was like a boat for those amidst the ocean. (32)

ततस्सीतां मष्गयता भवताकारि यत्सखे!
दुर्वचं तन्ममाद्यापि कर्तुं वा कथमीष्वरः।। 33

Dear companion! Then I cannot describe the deeds that were done by you while searching for Sītā. How is it possible to be done? (33)

सीता पि विगतप्राणा पुनरुज्जीविता त्वया।। 34

Sītā was consoled and her mood uplifted, when you took my message to her. Sītā, who was just somehow existing, was like are born, thanks to you. (34)

बहुनात्र किमुक्तेन लक्ष्मणः प्राणसन्निभः
पुनरुज्जीवितस्तेन तत्प्रत्युपकृतिः र्वदेत्।। 35

Why tell a lot about this issue? Even Lakşmaņa, dear to me like my own life was brought back to life by you. Who can tell which could be the best return-service for that? (35)

एकैकस्योपकारस्य प्रतिकर्तुमनीश्वराः
ससोदार्यासहामात्यास्सकलत्रास्सबान्धवाः
अन्ये मद्वंशजा नूनमृष्णिका वायुनन्दन! 36

Oh! Son of Wind God! My whole family, capable of doing return good turn to you, comprising of brothers, ministers, wives, and relatives, in fact every one born in our clan, is indebted to you. (36)

तथापि प्रार्थयाम्यद्य करिष्ये भवदीप्सितम्
तन्ममाचक्ष्व भद्रं ते शष्णु मत्प्रार्थनां कपे! 37

Even so, I decided to do whatever you dearly desire. I plead you to tell me whatever is that you wish. Listen to my pleading. (37)

इत्युक्तो रामचन्द्रेण वायुपुत्रो महाबलः
विनयावनतो भूत्वा बभाषे रघुनन्दनम्।। 38

So told by Rāma, the mightily powerful son of Wind God, bowing in reverence, said so to Raghurāma. (38)

भवत्पादाब्जयुग्मे स्मिन् भक्तिरस्त्वनपायिनी
सर्वेषां श्रेयसां मूलं ब्रह्माद्यैरपि दुर्लभा
यद्यस्ति ते कृपा स्वामिन् वरमेष वरो मम।। 39

‘Oh! Lord! Suffice if my devotion to your two lotus feet stands undeterred, That is the root for all splendidness. That will be the best boon to me, that even Creator Brahma and others can not get.’ (39)

अप्येवं भवतः कामः शाश्वतः पवनात्मजः
किंतु मत्प्रार्थनां श्रुत्वा गष्हाणेमं वरं पुनः।। 40

Hearing Hanumān’s such words, smiling, Rāma said so. ‘Oh! Son of Wind God! Even if that is your eternal wish, considering my pleading reconsider accepting this boon. (40)
