“Bhaberi Ghore Alek Shohore” is a Baul song with a deep spiritual and philosophical message. The lyrics say that those with profound thoughts can be recognized by their essence as their entire being is consumed by their inner thoughts. These inner thoughts hold a celestial realm where Allah and the Prophet reside. They are keeping an eye over us as our Guru and Murshid (teacher), guiding us towards the path that would bring us closer to them. The song encourages us to stop claiming possession of materialistic things and rather discuss inner strength. It urges us to search for the Divine within ourselves. The verses also talk about love, its never-ending pain and cautions us not to fall into it unknowingly. Ironically, humans fall in love without realising. It is also noted that those who sacrifice themselves for love are the ones who have truly fulfilled their purpose of this human life.

Bauls are a group of wandering mystical minstrels of Bengal. This community started with the largest Cultural Revolution in the history of human civilization, the Bhakti Movement led by Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Their syncretic traditions are the outcome of a culmination of Hinduism, Islam and Buddhism. Baul Music and Philosophy are deeply intertwined, with the Music serving as a medium for expressing and exploring our inner-self and the world around us, in search of the Divine. They also emphasise the importance of love, compassion, and tolerance, and reject distinctions based on caste, religion, or social status. Duality is a common theme in Baul song lyrics, with allegorical narratives using metaphors. ‘Deho-tatva’ – a recurring premise in Baul lyrics – is a concept of portraying nature and the universe through our bodies, which reflects the immortality of the cycle of life and death. It connects sex and spirituality – spiritual union of the individual with the Divine - to attain Moksha.
