Doha

प्रेम प्रतीतिहिं कपि भजै, सदा धरै उर ध्यान । तेहि के कारज सकल शुभ, सिद्ध करै हनुमान ॥

prema pratitihim kapi bhajai, sada dharai ura dhyana tehi ke karaja sakala shubha, siddha karai hanumana

Whoever worships the vanara with love and faith, holding him always in the heart's meditation — all their auspicious works Hanuman brings to fulfilment.

When it is recited: Tuesdays and Saturdays, times of acute difficulty, fear or obstruction — traditionally recited with focus and restraint, as an urgent appeal for Hanuman's immediate protection.

Traditional significance: Where the Hanuman Chalisa praises, the Bajrang Baan petitions — swearing Hanuman by his love of Rama to act without delay. Its rapid bija-mantra verses (om han han hanumanta) are treated as the arrow of the title; tradition regards it as a powerful text to be recited with sincerity and discipline, and promises that spirits and fears cannot stand before it.
