Arjun and the Storm: How Hanuman Made Him Brave
In a village, quiet and bright,
Lived a boy named Arjun, full of light.
But one dark night, a storm brewed strong,
Thunder rumbled loud, and the night felt long.
Arjun shivered, his heart full of fright,
The shadows danced in the flickering light.
His mother came close, with a book in her hand,
"The Hanuman Chalisa," she said, "is your magical band."
She opened the book, its pages aglow,
And started to chant, soft and slow.
"Jai Hanuman gyan gun sagar, Jai Kapis tihu lok ujagar."
Her voice was steady, her words were clear,
And slowly it calmed Arjun's fear.
"Who's Hanuman?" Arjun asked with surprise,
His mother smiled with love in her eyes.
"He's strong and brave, with a heart so pure,
A helper in trouble, his protection is sure."
Arjun listened, then joined the rhyme,
Each word felt soothing, like a chime.
He imagined Hanuman, mighty and kind,
Lifting a mountain, with courage in mind.
That very night, as the storm roared loud,
Arjun felt safe, strong, and proud.
He closed his eyes and whispered the verse,
The fear dissolved, like a lifted curse.
From that day on, when troubles arose,
Arjun turned to the Chalisa he chose.
Whether a test or a spooky sound,
Hanuman's strength was always around.
So little ones, if you feel afraid,
Remember the words, so lovingly laid.
Call upon Hanuman, your protector and guide,
In his courage and love, you can always confide.
