जय हनुमन्त सन्त हितकारी । सुन लीजै प्रभु अरज हमारी ॥
जन के काज बिलम्ब न कीजै । आतुर दौरि महा सुख दीजै ॥
जैसे कूदि सिन्धु महिपारा । सुरसा बदन पैठि बिस्तारा ॥
आगे जाय लङ्किनी रोका । मारेहु लात गी सुरलोका ॥
जाय बिभीषन को सुख दीन्हा । सीता निरखि परमपद लीन्हा ॥
बाग उजारि सिन्धु महं बोरा । अति आतुर जमकातर तोरा ॥
अक्षय कुमार मारि संहारा । लूम लपेटि लङ्क को जारा ॥
लाह समान लङ्क जरि गी । जय जय धुनि सुरपुर नभ भी ॥
अब बिलम्ब केहि कारन स्वामी । कृपा करहु उर अन्तरयामी ॥
जय जय लखन प्रान के दाता । आतुर ह्वै दुख करहु निपाता ॥
जै हनुमान जयति बल-सागर । सुर-समूह-समरथ भट-नागर ॥
ॐ हनु हनु हनु हनुमन्त हठीले । बैरिहि मारु बज्र की कीले ॥
ॐ ह्नीं ह्नीं ह्नीं हनुमन्त कपीसा । ॐ हुं हुं हुं हनु अरि उर सीसा ॥
जय अञ्जनि कुमार बलवन्ता । शङ्करसुवन बीर हनुमन्ता ॥
बदन कराल काल-कुल-घालक । राम सहाय सदा प्रतिपालक ॥
भूत, प्रेत, पिसाच निसाचर । अगिन बेताल काल मारी मर ॥
इन्हें मारु, तोहि सपथ राम की । राखु नाथ मरजाद नाम की ॥
सत्य होहु हरि सपथ पाइ कै । राम दूत धरु मारु धाइ कै ॥
जय जय जय हनुमन्त अगाधा । दुख पावत जन केहि अपराधा ॥
पूजा जप तप नेम अचारा । नहिं जानत कछु दास तुम्हारा ॥
बन उपबन मग गिरि गृह माहीम् । तुम्हरे बल हौं डरपत नाहीम् ॥
जनकसुता हरि दास कहावौ । ताकी सपथ बिलम्ब न लावौ ॥
जै जै जै धुनि होत अकासा । सुमिरत होय दुसह दुख नासा ॥
चरन पकरि, कर जोरि मनावौम् । यहि औसर अब केहि गोहरावौम् ॥
उठु, उठु, चलु, तोहि राम दुहाई । पायं परौं, कर जोरि मनाई ॥
ॐ चं चं चं चं चपल चलन्ता । ॐ हनु हनु हनु हनु हनुमन्ता ॥
ॐ हं हं हाङ्क देत कपि चञ्चल । ॐ सं सं सहमि पराने खल-दल ॥
अपने जन को तुरत उबारौ । सुमिरत होय आनन्द हमारौ ॥
यह बजरङ्ग-बाण जेहि मारै । ताहि कहौ फिरि कवन उबारै ॥
पाठ करै बजरङ्ग-बाण की । हनुमत रक्षा करै प्रान की ॥
यह बजरङ्ग बाण जो जापैम् । तासों भूत-प्रेत सब कापैम् ॥
धूप देय जो जपै हमेसा । ताके तन नहिं रहै कलेसा ॥
दोहा
उर प्रतीति दृढ़, सरन ह्वै, पाठ करै धरि ध्यान ।
बाधा सब हर, करैं सब काम सफल हनुमान ॥
About This Stotram
Overview
The Bajrang Baan is a Hindi devotional hymn dedicated to Lord Hanuman, structured as an urgent appeal for his intervention and protection. The title "Bajrang Baan" (arrow of Bajrang) invokes Hanuman by his epithet Bajrangbali — referring to his adamantine body — and frames the recitation as a swift, direct call for his aid. The text belongs to the North Indian Bhakti devotional tradition and is widely used for protection against harm and negative forces.

When is the best time to recite this?
Tuesday and Saturday are the traditional days for Hanuman worship, and the Bajrang Baan is frequently recited on these days. It can also be recited at any time of need, particularly in emergencies or when facing adversity. Hanuman Jayanti is an additional auspicious occasion.
What is the historical and traditional background?
The Bajrang Baan originated in North India, most likely during the medieval period when Hindi devotional literature associated with Hanuman was proliferating. Its author is unknown. The text reflects the devotional conventions of the period — direct petition, invocation of Hanuman's legendary deeds, and use of the deity's protective power as a practical recourse for devotees. It circulates alongside the Hanuman Chalisa in North Indian Hanuman worship contexts and is sometimes recited with specific ritual precautions, as the text itself notes its potency and the recommended attitude for recitation.
