Chalis = 40, Chalisa = 40 verses; Hanuman Chalisa is a Hymn of 40 verses in praise of Lord Hanuman.

Stories of Tulsidas, Raghavendra Swami describe the compassion and support of Hanuman to those who seek his help or pray to Lord Rama.

Pavantnai sankar haran,
Mangal murti roop.
Ram Lakhan Sita sahit,
Hrdaye basahu sur bhoop.
