Cheer Ke Chaati
Lyrics
Opening
Cheer ke chhatee bole apnee
Tearing open his chest, he declares
Bole Pawan putra Hanumaan
Hanuman, son of the wind, proclaims
Mere man me basay hai Raam, mere tan me basay hai Raam
Ram dwells in my mind, Ram dwells in my body
Verse 1
Seeta haran kiya Ravan ne, Prabhujee the akulaye
When Ravan kidnapped Sita, the Lord was restless with grief
Hanumaan ne Sitajee ko, prabhu sandesh sunaye
Hanuman brought the Lord’s message to Sitaji
Hanumaan ji karte aye, Prabhu ji ke gungaan
Hanuman came singing the glories of the Lord
Bole Pawan putra Hanumaan
Hanuman, son of the wind, proclaims
Mere man me basay hai Raam, mere tan me basay hai Raam
Ram dwells in my mind, Ram dwells in my body
Verse 2
Lagee Lakshman ji ko shakti, dekh prabhu ghabraye
When Lakshman was struck down, the Lord was deeply troubled
Bhor se pehale Hanumaanji, daulaa girle aye
Before dawn Hanuman brought the whole mountain
Uth baithe Lakshman ji lekar, Shri Ram ka naam
Lakshman rose again, taking Shri Ram’s name
Bole Pawan putra Hanumaan
Hanuman, son of the wind, proclaims
Mere man me basay hai Raam, mere tan me basay hai Raam
Ram dwells in my mind, Ram dwells in my body
Verse 3
Vaanar sena dekh ke Ravan, ki sena ghabraye
Seeing the army of monkeys, Ravan’s army was seized with fear
Palak jhapakte Hanumat ne, Lanka me aag lagaaeee
In the blink of an eye Hanuman set Lanka ablaze
Bole prabhu ke saath mitaakar, Ravan ka abhimaan
With the Lord beside him he destroyed Ravan’s pride
Bole Pawan putra Hanumaan
Hanuman, son of the wind, proclaims
Mere man me basay hai Raam, mere tan me basay hai Raam
Ram dwells in my mind, Ram dwells in my body
Meaning
From Shri Prakash Gossai’s Bhiksha Ya Dhaan — Hanuman tears open his chest and shows Ram dwelling in mind and body. A beloved kirtan also recorded by Anup Jalota, telling how Hanuman carried Ram’s message to Sita, brought the mountain for Lakshman, and burned Lanka.
