Hason Raja - Paragraph
Hason Raja was born in sylhet in a rich family. He was a Bengali poet. He was also a mystic bard and folksongs writer and composer. He did not receive much formal education. In his youth, he led a life of luxury. He had everything- money, comfort, and pleasure. At one time he understood that all these things are meaningless. Hason Raja gave away the vast of land properties for the well-being of the people. He started to think deeply about the Creator, about life, death, and mankind. He wrote a lot of songs, perhaps about a thousand in number. His book called ‘Hason Udash’ was published in 1906.
The book had 206 songs in it. In his songs Hason called himself ‘Crazy
Hason’ or the ‘Pagla Hason Raja’. A volume called ‘Hason Raja Samagra’ a
complete Works of Hason Raja, was also published. The book contained 500 poems
and songs. Some of the songs were written by the poet in Hindi. Hason Raja’s
songs were always popular in Sylhet. But very soon they spread all over
Bangladesh. Some eminent folk singers made Hason's songs popular. People like his songs very much. This great mystic bard died in 1922. Hason
Raja’s songs continue to be sung in rural households, cultural gatherings, and
music festivals, preserving his legacy and introducing his wisdom to new
generations. We are proud of this mystic bard of Bangladesh. He gained
international recognition few years after his death.
