Hanuman ji Aarti — Lyrics in English
Aarti Keeje Hanuman Lala Ki
Aarti Keeje Hanuman Lala Ki।
Dushta Dalan Raghunath Kala Ki॥
Jaake Bal Se Girivar Kaanpe।
Rog Dosh Jaake Nikat Na Jhaanke॥
Anjani Putra Mahabaldayi।
Santaan Ke Prabhu Sada Sahai॥
De Beera Raghunath Pathaye।
Lanka Jaari Siya Sudh Laaye॥
Lanka So Kot Samudra Si Khaai।
Jaat Pavansut Baar Na Laai॥
Lanka Jaari Asur Sanghare।
Siyaaramji Ke Kaaj Sanvare॥
Lakshman Moorchhit Pade Sakare।
Aani Sanjeevan Praan Ubaare॥
Paithi Patal Tori Jamkare।
Ahiravan Ki Bhuja Ukhaade॥
Baaye Bhuja Asur Dal Maare।
Daahine Bhuja Santjan Taare॥
Sur-Nar-Muni Jan Aarti Utaare।
Jai Jai Jai Hanuman Uchaare॥
Kanchan Thaar Kapoor Lau Chhai।
Aarti Karat Anjana Mai॥
Lanka vidhwans Keenh Raghurai।
Tulsidas Prabhu Keerti Gai॥
Jo Hanumanji Ki Aarti Gaave।
Basi Baikunth Paramapad Paave॥
