English Fakir lalon shai
Fakir Lalon Shai (1774 – 17 October 1890) — also known as Lalon Sai, Lalon Shah or Mahatma Lalon — was a Bengali of many talents: a spiritual Baul sadhak, humanist, social reformer and philosopher. He was the lyricist, composer and singer of countless songs, celebrated as a pioneer of Baul music and as the "Baul Emperor". Through his songs Baul music became widely popular in the nineteenth century, and his humanist vision — placing humanity above every division of religion, caste and creed — still guides the mystic tradition of Kushtia.

In the music-loving indigenous society of Bengal, sage Lalon Shah has left such countless and matchless contributions in the field of folk song that, by virtue of the simple expressive sweetness and polish of these paramartha-pointing mystic songs, he will be able to stir waves of feeling in the hearts of the Bengalis for several centuries. The very nature of mystic songs is that transcendental feeling must be expressed through various metaphors. Often they cannot be fathomed by the intellect; people are satisfied only by feeling them with the heart.

From the beginning of Muslim dominance in this land, the aspiration arose to guide both the Hindu and Muslim communities in the light of a single ideology. That aspiration took different forms in Ramananda, Kabir, Nanak or Chaitanya Deva. The aspiration of these great souls in the religious world was devoted to establishing a meeting ground of both Hindu and Muslim cultures; in its political expression it appeared in Emperor Akbar's founding of a religion called Din-i-Ilahi, and in its popular scholarly expression, in the massive book Muz'ima-ul-Bahrein by Prince Dara Shikoh.

The priceless treasure is that great joy which man, finding it within, longs to become complete; a supreme knowledge or primal power at whose dawning breaks the impregnable fortress-prison of existence. The priceless treasure is unfeigned as well. For deceitful guile or hypocrisy are not its marks. This treasure is steadfast; even after the joy of attaining it, it does not run out. This treasure is Sai Niranjan.

The ektara. In its string, the cry of the mind and the expression of the heart. In the resonance of its string, melody, lament and feeling. In the supplication of the mind, an attempt to cleanse society of its filth. From the earliest times, the sage Lalon Sai strove with all his life toward that - an effort of humanity and morality.
