Published in aarti compilations without attribution, this is the Hanumat-stuti of the Vinaya Patrika, set in raga Dhanashri; the verse numbers here are that text's own. Where the editions differ, the reading that parses is set: रामसन्देशहर (bearer of Rama's message) over रामसंदेहसर, and वानराकार and सिंहासनासीन over the evident misspellings वानाराकार and सिंघसनासीन.

भावार्थ

जयति मंगलागार का अर्थ

This is Tulsidas writing in his most Sanskritic register, and it is a different instrument from the Hanuman Chalisa: five verses, almost entirely long compounds, no narrative. Its first line does the boldest thing in it — calling Hanuman purari, the destroyer of Tripura, which is a name of Shiva, and so stating the Rudra-avatara identification outright before anything else is said. The last line is quieter and stranger: Rama's city stands in the lake of the poet's own mind, and it is there that Hanuman is said to wander.
