Mamun Nodia (English: Mamun Noida; born 18 February 1964 - died 31 May 2007) was a recluse baul of Bengal. The late singer was one of the most popular baul vocalists of greater Kushtia of this generation. He always wore a white robe of ochre hue. His spectacled face was dark and innocent, and his manner of speech extremely humble.
He was the son of Tahajjat Ali, alias Khoka Mia, a resident of Hatsh Haripur union in Kushtia; Mamun Nodia's nickname was "Muktar". His short life was fulfilled to the full, for during his lifetime he had known the Beloved. Mamun Nodia perceived the mystic philosophy of Bengal, which we call 'bhab', with exceptional clarity. His unforgettable song "Amar Mon Na Chay E Ghor Bandhi Lo Kishori" is the proof of it.
Mamun Nodia was a vocalist, one of the followers of Guru Rejna Shah, at the mazar of the dervish Rejna Shah in Hatsh Haripur of Kushtia, the holy land of Baul Samrat Lalan. He was not only in songs and melodies; he created new words too, which are found in his songs. His most popular song is "Merina Tui Amai Kandali". This song is one of Mamun Nodia's own and one of his listeners' favourites.
He sang out of self-realisation. "Ami Ek Potitar Premik" (I am a prostitute's lover) is one example of it. Just when he had begun to bring out many such songs among us, cancer held him back. At only 43 years of age he had to leave this world. With him we lost new words and new melodies.
