## About this song

Follows the New World Kirtan chord chart for Krishna Das's kirtan (*Breath of the Heart*, 2001). The verses ride the same C–F movement as the opening; the chorus turns through Dm. Verse lines come from the Hanuman Chalisa tradition: "I bow again and again to Anjani's son, Hanuman."
