Swift as the mind and as fast as the wind,
Master of the senses and foremost among the wise,
Son of the wind god and leader of the monkey army,
To the messenger of Lord Rama, I bow my head.

And returned after overcoming Lanka!
At Sita's holy feet,
Maruti bowed down in reverence,
And received Mother Janaki's blessings!
The divine image of Rama within his heart,
Anjaneya revealed for all to see!
You are our living, speaking God!
You are our words and our very breath!
Hail Hanuman!
Hey!
O King of monkeys!
Hey!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This powerful song is a glorious devotional hymn dedicated to Lord Hanuman, blending traditional Sanskrit slokas with heroic Tamil lyrics. It exalts Hanuman as the ultimate symbol of supreme strength, humility, and unwavering devotion to Lord Rama. The lyrics recount his legendary heroic feats from the Ramayana, including leaping across the ocean as Rama's messenger, destroying Lanka, fetching the Sanjeevani mountain to revive Lakshmana, and revealing Lord Rama and Sita inside his torn chest. Throughout the track, Hanuman is celebrated not only as a formidable warrior and 'Vajrakaya' (diamond-bodied deity) but also as 'Dheena Bandhu'—a compassionate protector of the weak and helpless. The song emphasizes the reciprocal spiritual bond between Rama and Hanuman, declaring that Rama is Hanuman's soul and Hanuman is Rama's very life force.
