Bajrang Baan (ବଜରଙ୍ଗ ବାଣ) is a powerful and revered hymn (stotra) dedicated to Lord Hanuman , also known as Bajrang Bali (the one with a body as strong as a diamond vajra ). While originally composed in Awadhi by the poet Tulsidas (the author of the Ramcharitmanas), the Bajrang Baan has been wholeheartedly adopted by Odia devotees and is recited daily in countless homes and temples across Odisha.
