।। जय बोलो श्री राम लक्ष्मण जानकी
जय बोलो श्री राम भक्त हनुमान जी की ।।

This poem is dedicated to My elder brother.

The world's bestest brother who is always there to protect His sister.

The One who is always merciful and benevolent to His devotees, and would readily rush to save them from any trouble.

The  greatest devotee of all times who is always there to listen to the stories of His Prabhu Shree SiyaRam.

How can I write a rendition of His favourite Ramayana without seeking His permission?

He is the epitome of intellect and such an amazing writer and poet Himself; it is only through His Divine Grace did Shree Tulsidas compose the Shree Ramcharitmanas and the Hanuman Chalisa, which is so powerful even till date.

The One who was the first witness and writer of the Ramayana, oh beautiful Lord of intellect, devotion and the epitome of 'Bhakti Hi Shakti Hai', please grant Me Your blessings so that I can do justice to my role as a writer here, and write to the best of my capabilities.

Your childhood tales have been,
The flagbearer of bravery akin,
The bedtime stories of all children,
Sing your praises, the greatest of men.

If anyone chants the name of Your Lord anywhere,
You're always omnipresent there,
Such is Your devotion and penance,
That You even conquered the monkey mind through faith and patience.

Of all, You're a Chiranjeevi, a timeless devotee,
The devotion of Your Lord is Your only fee,
You are the Creator of the next millennium,
With great wisdom and power, You're invincible and unconquerable.

Any task, You can accomplish with ease,
You have shown the world what true surendrance means,
There can be no Ramayana without You,
The story of Shree SiyaRam finds its conclusion in you.

When the soul is love,
The mind is pure,
The heart becomes the temple,
Of the living God.

And please may I request You,
To enter My heart and establish,
A beautiful Ram Darbar there,
And house Yourself here forever.

Let my life be of purpose,
Let me be of use to You,
Let me never forget You,
Let me be close to my roots.

Just as You carried the Sanjivani,
Please carry the weight of my worries,
Just as You took Your Panchamukhi form,
Please take the form of love and devotion.

Make me fearless, make me a humble servant,
At Your Lotus Feet,
You're dearer to My Lord than His own life,
Which makes You closer to Me.

Just like You, I am a devotee too,
But I am still learning,
Being Your devotee may make me,
A humble being who is more focused.

Please, I surrender at Your Lotus Feet,
Oh the eleventh Rudra avatar,
Your belief and faith,
Can move mountains and destroy all ego.

Accept my apologies,
And my prayers,
Help me heal,
Take me in Your shelter and care.

Jai Shree SiyaRam!
