Chant the Hanuman Chalisa regularly to reap phenomenal benefits
The Hanuman Chalisa attributed to Sant Tulsidas is one of the most famous sets of verses dedicated to Lord Hanuman in Awadhi language. Penned and composed by the 16-century poet, the Chalisa is a compilation of forty poems or Chalis chaupayis meaning forty quatrain verses. Revered for authoring the Ramcharitsmanas, Tulsidas is hailed as one of the most ardent devotees of Lord Rama. And in this web-post, we shall tell you why regularly chanting the Hanuman Chalisa composed by the spiritual reformer is beneficial.
Benefits of chanting the Hanuman Chalisa:
* Hanuman is Chiranjeevi meaning immortal. He exists even today in some form or the other. Hence, the one who sings the Hanuman Chalisa with sincere devotion and dedication is showered with the choicest blessings of the Lord.
* Those who are affected by the ill-effects of Saturn or Shani can rid themselves of it by chanting the Chalisa regularly. Since Lord Hanuman had once rescued Shani from the clutches of Ravana, the latter feels indebted to him. And as a gesture of gratitude, Shani relieves devotees of Lord Hanuman from his adverse effects.
* By chanting the Chalisa, one can also seek the blessings of Lord Rama, who considers Hanuman as his closest friend.
* The one who sings the Hanuman Chalisa can gain knowledge because Lord Anjaneya is highly-learned. One can imbibe the goodness of Lord Hanuman by chanting the forty verses.

Lyrics of the Hanuman Chalisa
Doha
Sri Guru Charan Saroj Raj Nij Man Mukur Sudhari I
Baranau Raghuvar Bimal Jasu Jo Dayaku Ohal Chari II
Buddhiheen Tanu Janike Sumarau Pavan Kumar I
Bal Buddhi Vidya Dehu Mohi Harau Kalesh Vikar II
Hanuman Chalisa:
Jai Hanuman gyan gun sagar
Jai Kapis tihun lok ujagar
Ram doot atulit bal dhama
Anjaani putra Pavan sut nama
Mahabir Bikram Bajrangi
Kumati nivar sumati ke sangi
Kanchan varan viraj subesa
Kanan kundal kunchit kesa
Hath vajra aur dhvaja viraje
Kaandhe moonj janeyu saje
Shankar suvan kesri nandan
Tej pratap maha jag vandan
Vidyavan guni ati chatur
Ram kaj karibe ko aatur
Prabu charitra sunibe ko rasiya
Ram Lakhan Sita man basiya
Sukshma roop dhari siyahi dikhava
Vikat roop dhari lank jarava
Bhima roop dhari asur sanghare
Ramachandra ke kaj sanvare
Laye Sanjivan Lakhan jiyaye
Shri Raghuvir harashi ur laye
Raghupati kinhi bahut badai
Tum mam priye Bharat hi sam bhai
Sahas badan tumharo yash gaave
Asa kahi Shripati kanth lagaave
Sankadhik Brahmadi Muneesa
Narad Saarad sahit Aheesa
Yam Kuber Digpaal jahan te
Kavi Kovid kahi sake kahan te
Tum upkar Sugreevahin keenha
Ram milaye rajpad deenha
Tumharo mantra Vibheeshan maana
Lankeshwar bhaye sab jag jana
Yug sahastra jojan par Bhanu
Leelyo tahi madhur phal janu
Prabhu mudrika meli mukh mahee
Jaladhi langhi gaye achraj nahee
Durgam kaj jagath ke jete
Sugam anugraha tumhre tete
Ram dwaare tum rakhvare
Hoat na agya binu paisare
Sub sukh lahae tumhari sar na
Tum rakshak kahu ko dar naa
Aapan tej samharo aapai
Teenhon lok hank te kanpai
Bhoot pisaach nikat nahin aavai
Mahavir jab naam sunave
Nase rog harae sab peera
Japat nirantar Hanumant beera
Sankat te Hanuman chudavae
Man kram vachan dhyan jo lavai
Sab par Ram tapasvee raja
Tin ke kaj sakal Tum saja
Aur manorath jo koi lavai
Soi amit jeevan phal pavai
Charon jug partap tumhara
Hai persidh jagat ujiyara
Sadhu Sant ke tum rakhware
Asur nikandan Ram dulhare
Ashta sidhi nav nidhi ke dhata
As var deen Janki mata
Ram rasayan tumhare pasa
Sada raho Raghupati ke dasa
Tumhare bhajan Ram ko pavai
Janam janam ke dukh bisraavai
Anth kaal Raghuvir pur jayee
Jahan janam Hari Bakht Kahayee
Aur Devta chit na dharahi
Hanumanth sehi sarve sukh karehi
Sankat kate mite sab peera
Jo sumirai Hanumat balbeera
Jai Jai Jai Hanuman Gosayin
Kripa karahu Gurudev ki nyahin
Jo sat bar path kare kohi
Chutahi bandhi maha sukh hohi
Jo yah padhe Hanuman Chalisa
Hoye siddhi sakhi Gaurisa
Tulsidas sada hari chera
Keejai nath hridaye mein dera
The Chalisa concludes with two sets of Doha, and they are as follows:
Pavan tanay sankat harana I
