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.
