The song ‘Ami Akul Doriyay Bheshe Jayi’, written by Bhaba Pagla, portrays our deep sense of longing and dependence on an empathetic companion, allegorically, the Divine. The lyrics express that without this companion, we feel lost and adrift in the world. It is our belief in the Ultimate Power that drives us to face Life in its various forms, good or bad. The theme of pain and understanding runs throughout the song, highlighting this unique connection that we feel, in our own individual ways, with the way we interpret the Supreme Power. The lyrics also convey a willingness to sacrifice everything for the sake of this love and devotion.
This song has been written and composed by Baul Bhaba Pagla, as is evident from the lyrics - “Bhaba-ro dorodi tumi, ohe Krishno ontorjami go” meaning “You are the companion of Bhaba too, oh Krishna, the Omniscient!” This is a common way in Baul Music to label a song with the name of its creator.

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 emphasize 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.
