1. Syadla Bhajan Mandal - 1981
English Translation:
1. O Lord Hanuman! We worship you and sing this bhajan in praise of your glory. Hanuman, the son of Anjani and Vayu Devta (deity) is known to bestow the devout worshiper with spiritual courage, physical strength and ability to surmount difficulties faced in the worldly life. Hanuman is also known to ward off evil effects of the departed spirits, ghosts and devilry or black magic. Lord Hanuman is revered as God of Wisdom, Strength, Courage, Devotion and Self-Discipline.
2. Having devoutly proffered oil, Sindoor1 and garland of the flowers of Akdo2 and black Urad3, the worshipers are delighted having a faith that, all their worries of ill health, evil effects of ghosts and severely punishing effects of the Saturn (Shani Dev) would be lessened, the worshipers of Lord Hanuman joyfully sing prayers and devotional songs in the praise of their beloved God Hanuman.
3. Praising Lord Hanuman, the worshiper says, you have served Lord Rama with utmost devotion. In order to find Seeta in Lanka you traversed the ocean and also helped building a bridge across the ocean to enable the army of Lord Rama to conquer Ravana. Also, you found Seeta kept in captivity by Ravana and helped Lord Rama to bring her back safely.
4. The poet, Shivanand Swami performing Aarti of Lord Hanuman says, whoever would worship and sing prayers to appease Lord Hanuman with utmost devotion and love, would be bestowed with bountiful wealth and happiness along with the grace of Lord Hanuman.

2 Akdo i.e. the Crown Flower = In Gujarati language this plant is referred to as of Akdo and botanically known as Calotropis gigantea, having fungicidal and insecticidal properties.
3 Whole black Urad are offered to the idol of Hanuman to appease the Shani Dev. Shani Dev is known as the lord of justice. It is said that he does not forgive a mistake ever. He has a record of all the good and bad karmas of our past life. When pleased he would shower all the blessings and fill our life with happiness. According to the legends mighty Ravana had the Shani Dev under his clutches. Since, he was liberated by Hanuman, Shani Dev had proclaimed that the worshipers who offered black Urad and oil on Saturdays to the idol of Shani, would not have to face the evil effects of Shani.
