Babu Kishan's aka Krishnendu Das Baul 4th Book 2025, a tell all 'HISTORICAL LINEAGE BAUL' will be released soon. He has 'ARCHIVED and PRESERVED' this ONE and ONLY LINEAGE of Baul History for over 60 years. This indigenous ancestral lineage Guru Shishya Parampara Sampradya pioneered Baul throughout Bengal, all over India and (Globally since the 1950's). Baul is synergistic within Hindu thought, they are not an umbrella for other religions. This lineage does not follow others, others follow them.

All Rights reserved. Means no name dropping, it was Babu Kishan who has preserved this Baul history, do not take, cherry pick and then name drop as if you did the research and are the one. We are seeing this with a fake lineage who is collecting people, wanting to be Baba or Ma wanting to collect people, and inflating lying that there are 20,000 Baul in Birbhum, so that they can collect donations to be saviour of Baul, repeating what does not belong to them.
Fake Baul, Fake Lineage.
Baul is extinct.
Do Not poach, copy, take the poets names off, if you use give credit to the poet or Babu Kishan, because other wise you would not have a clue.
The poet cares and a real Baul knows who wrote the poetry, who recorded it first, who wrote the tune to the poetry.
Stop Intellectual property theft of this lineage.
If you record on youtube, give credit to the Baul Poets.
These 5 songs made Baul famous worldwide.. these songs and the tune are from Babukishan's lineage and his family. His grandfather Sri Nabani Das Khyeppa Baul wrote the lyrics to "Ghole Male Ghole Male," "Bhalo Kore Porga Schoole," and "Menka Mathay Delo" "Hridmjhare Rakhbo" ... all written by Nabani Das Baul and music composed by him.
In recent times they were made super famous by the one and only "legendary Baul of our time Purna Das Baul" who is Babukishan's father and Nabani Das Baul son..
These songs were recorded by Indian Cinema's legendary music directors of "Hindustan Records which was the first official Indian Music Company in India."
These 3 music directors were Bengali's, Pan kaj Mallick, Timir Baran, Raichand Boral. These famous music directors recorded Purna Das Baul because Purna Das is the best Baul singer and because these music directors respected Nabani Das Baul, they were his friends and well wishers.
20x Ghole Male Ghole Male was recorded 20 X worldwide and 18 of those times it was recorded 18X by Babukishan and everytime it was recoreded it was a hit. Today this song is sung by Bauls without any of them giving credit to the Baul who wrote it or made it famous. With no credit given to the poet?
None of these songs are Bengal folk songs they are Baul songs from a many thousand year old lineage and should be treated with respect not songs to be sung on singing shows or in Movies without any understanding of where they came from or who wrote the songs?
1.) Hridmjhare Rakhbo, from this lineage written by Nabani Das Khyappa Baul..) Singing Babukishan
2.) Ghole Male Ghole Male, Nabani Das Baul song. Written and tune composed by Nabani Das Baul.
3.) Jemon Beni, Rasaraj Gosai (Nabani Das Baul's uncle) wrote this...he was one of the prominent sanskrit scholars and Baul poet in Bengali history, he was a sanskrit master. Never married and the greatest tantric and tantric poet. Music composed by Nabani Das Baul and Purna Das Baul is the first to record it. I just want to let you know this is not a Bengali folk song, none of these songs are folk songs they are Baul songs of Sadhana with a deep philosophical meanings.
4.) Bhalo Kore Porga Schoole... Nabani Das Baul song and tune, it is a song about about Sri Chaitanya mahaprabu, and Nityanada Revolution.. Actually the Bauls made this revolution famous and Gaudiya Math and Iskcon high-jacked their songs ect and distorted what Baul is???.. there is something that people need to understand Chaitanya was not a poet or Baul he was a scholar, it was Nityananda and his lineage going back thousands of years that were the poets, philosophers, Hare Krishna singers and dancers....
5.)Menka Mathay Delo.. Nabani Das Baul song and tune.
So if you are singing these songs and record on "Youtube" or use them in a movie now you know. Please give credit to Nabani Das Kyappa Baul, and learn a little bit about this lineage, it is real and has been around for thousands of years. We will be listing all the Baul songs, and Baul kirtan that come from this lineage. Please check back from time to time. Hari Bol
This is a was a very controversial song in Bengal in 1980.
Written and composed by Babu Kishan aka Krishnendu Das !
Babu is saying everybody says, Krishna does this and that, what about Radha?
He was awarded a Best Poetry award for this in 1980?
Bharat Seva Ashram in Haridwar in 2007 this was a last minute Baul song and dance on request of BhartSeva Ashram where we were staying. It was Babu Kishan's 45th Birthday, guests were Bengali. I his wife was took the video, organic impromptu song and dance on the swamji's request.
This is by a freind of Nabani Das Khyapa Baul, Neela Kantha was not a Baul but a great friend of Nabani's. Bauls supported and kept many other poets, songs in their collections, just because poems of other poets are found in their note books does not mean they are Baul poems.
This is why a person who is an expert in the languages of Baul and knowing what is a folk song and what is a Baul song are of the utmost importance is any Academic Scholars work as a self-titled expert, you are messing with things you do not have a clue about and even leading to false narratives in something you are utterly qualified to self-determine, one you are not a Baul, the people you talk to are the wrong people who arrogantly are tying to represent an indigenous tradition, firstly they are not qualified to even talk about, this has been proven.
In the moment of your last breath,
How shall you remember the Name of your Lord?
All your life whatever your mind wanted, it was granted,
Now will you say the Name of your Lord for once?
Alas! This mouth will come to cease to speak!
... Alas these eyes will come to cease to see!
How this ear will come to cease to listen!
Think now my friend: in the moment of your last breath,
How shall you remember the Name of your Lord?
How many things to eat, chew, lick and drink,
How many precious metals, diamonds and pearls to wear.
What shall you give to this dying? Alas, nothing..
This Song writer cries,
May my last breath goes out with Your Name O Lord!
At Your Lotus Feet may I find my place.

Kemon kore bolbi Hari moroner dine?
Bodon jaha cheyecho tai diyechi,
E Hari Naam bolba kina, Bodoney e?
Moroner dine, kemon kore bolbi Hari?
In the moment of your last breath,
How shall you remember the Name of your Lord?
All your life whatever your mind wanted, it were granted,
Now will you say the Name of your Lord for once?
Bodon re tui bolbi kina, Noyon re tui herbi kina, re?
