Jai Hanuman Chalisa

[Verse 1] Morning light on my window Incense smoke drawing slow lines Ma keeps whispering your name Till it slips into mine Eyes still half in a dream But my hands join at my chest Every breath becomes a mantra Every worry finds its rest [Chorus] Jai Hanuman Listen to my chalisa Carry my heart on your flight Breaker of doubt Giver of courage Stand by my side in the fight Jai Hanuman Flame in the darkness Lift every fear from my mind Line after line As I sing this chalisa I leave my burdens behind [Verse 2] Old book Pages turned brown Thumbprints from a thousand nights Dada’s voice in my memory Shaking walls with your praise so bright When the world feels too heavy And my faith runs thin and small I just start with “Shree Guru Charan” And I feel you hear it all [Chorus] Jai Hanuman Listen to my chalisa Carry my heart on your flight Breaker of doubt Giver of courage Stand by my side in the fight Jai Hanuman Flame in the darkness Lift every fear from my mind Line after line As I sing this chalisa I leave my burdens behind [Bridge] You who leap across oceans (hey!) Make this distance feel so near Turn my shaking into steady Turn my anger into clear If my voice cracks on the verses Still you know just what I mean Every stumble Every syllable You make holy You make clean [Chorus] Jai Hanuman Listen to my chalisa Carry my heart on your flight Breaker of doubt Giver of courage Stand by my side in the fight Jai Hanuman Flame in the darkness Lift every fear from my mind Line after line As I sing this chalisa I leave my burdens behind
