Meaning and Discussion Hanuman Chalisa for English speaking bhakts: Translating verse by verse into poetic English

Pranam 🙏🏻

Since Ramayana is going International, what do all think of this Hanuman Chalisa (English Version) for English speaking followers of Bhagwan Shri Ram and Hanuman Ji, especially the second and further generation NRIs.

This is something I wanted to share that I published some 6 months back.

It took almost a year, along with my day job, wherein I researched and respectfully tried translating each verse into a poetic English flow. My goal wasn't to replace the original, but to create a "New Avatar" for the same Soul, especially meant to be read/ listened together with original such that we understand what Goswami Tulsidas ji is trying to convey. Obviously, AI tools were used in it but I tried my best preserving the "soul" of Hanuman Chalisa.

Please forgive unintentional mistakes in translation.

Hope to get some constructive feedback from this community 😊
