(vaanar.yooth.mukhyam-), Let me find refuge in Lord Rama's Messenger, the incomparable Lord Hanuman. Please accept me and my prayers at your feet.

Whenever Lord Rama's (raghunaatha-) name is chanted (kirtanam-), you are present with your head bowed (krita-mastika-) and with devotion in your eyes (-anjalim). You, Lord Hanuman, always have your eye on the entire universe of your devotees through your divine and complete (paripurna-) vision (lochanam-). You are like the wind (marutim-) and the destroyer of the demons (rakshasa-) on this earthly plane.
