Jai Hanuman Balaji deva,

Devan vinati ki ati bhaari,
chhaand diyo Ravi kasht nihari.
Langhi udadhi Siya sudhi laaye,
Lakshman hit Sanjeevan laaye.
Ramanuj praan divakar,
Shankar suvan Maa Anjani chaakar.
Keshari Nandan dukh bhav bhanjan,

Nritya kare nit nyaare nyaare,
riddhi siddhiyaan jaake dwaare.
Arzi ka aadesh milte hi,
Bhairav bhoot pakadte tabhi.
Kotwal captain kripaani,
Pretaraj sankat kalyaani.
Chauki bandhan katte bhai,
jo jan karte hain sevakayi.
Ramdas Bal Bhagwanta,
Mehandipur pragte Hanumanta.
Jo jan Balaji mein aate,
janam janam ke paap nasate.
Jal paavan lekar ghar jaate,
nirmal ho anand manate.
Kroor kathin sankat bhaag jaave,
satya dharm path raah dikhave.
Jo sat paath kare Chalisa,
taapar prasann hoye Baagisa.
Kalyaan snehi, sneh se gaave,
sukh samriddhi riddhi siddhi paave.
॥ Doha ॥
Mand buddhi mam jaanke,
kshama karo gunakhaan.
Sankat mochan kshamhu mam,
daas snehi kalyaan.
About Shri Mehandipur Balaji Chalisa
The Chalisa describes the divine trinity worshipped at the temple — Shri Balaji Maharaj, Shri Pretraj Sarkar, and Shri Kotwal Kaal Bhairav Ji — who together uphold divine justice, remove negativity, and protect devotees from spiritual disturbances such as Dakini, Shakini, cemetery spirits, witches, and malevolent ghosts, all of whom are said to flee in fear of Balaji''s power.
The hymn also recalls two of Hanuman''s most celebrated childhood and epic feats: as an infant, he once swallowed the sun (Ravi), plunging the world into darkness until the urgent pleas of the gods convinced him to release it; and as an adult, he famously crossed the ocean to bring the life-saving Sanjeevani herb from the Himalayas to revive the gravely wounded Lakshmana during the war in Lanka.
It mentions "chauki bandhan" — negative bindings or spells, often linked to black magic — which devotees believe are broken through devoted worship at Balaji''s court, along with Mahant Ganeshpuri, the dedicated priest who serves the deity with complete devotion. According to traditional beliefs, regular and sincere recitation of this Chalisa helps remove severe obstacles such as black magic, evil spirits, negative energies, and astrological afflictions related to Saturn (Shani) and Rahu, especially when recited with faith on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
