Aarti kije Hanuman Lala ki.

Dusht dalan Raghunath kala ki.

Jake bal se girivar kanpe.

Rog dosh jake nikat na jhanke.

Anjani putra maha baldayi.

De bira Raghunath pathaye.

Lanka jari Siya sudhi laye.

Lanka so kot samudra si khai.

Jat Pavansut bar na lai.

Lanka jari asur sanhare.

Siyaramji ke kaj sanvare.

Lakshman murchhit pade sakare.

Ani Sanjivan pran ubare.

Paithi patal tori jam kare.

Ahiravan ki bhuja ukhare.

Baye bhuja asur dal mare.

Dahine bhuja sant jan tare.

Sur nar muni aarti utare.

Kanchan thal kapur lau chhayi.

Aarti karat Anjana Mai.

Jo Hanumanji ki aarti gavai.

Basi Baikunth param pad pavai.
