Dear Kalyani,

Namaste,

Since I do not know tamil script I am not very sure of the stotra.
However, I think it is the bhiimaruupii stotra by SRI raamadaasa
samartha. Here is a copy from sanskrit documents site at 
ftp://jaguar.cs.utah.edu/private/sanskrit/index.html

If you would like to see it's devanaagarii version please see
ftp://jaguar.cs.utah.edu/private/sanskrit/marathi/bhiima.gif
ftp://jaguar.cs.utah.edu/private/sanskrit/marathi/bhiima.ps

Let me know, if this is indeed the 'rare maaruti stotra' that you have
mentioned.

Thanks
Shree
