Brajabuli is an artificial literary language popularized by the Maithili poet Vidyapati.[1][2] His Brajabuli lyrics about the love for Radha Krishna is considered to his best of works.[3] Other poets emulated his writing, and the language became established in the 16th century.[1][2] Among the medieval Bengali poets who wrote in Brajabuli are Narottama Dasa, Balarama Das, Jnanadas, and Gobindadas Kabiraj.[4]
Rabindranath Tagore also composed his Bhanusimha Thakurer Padavali (1884) in this language (he initially promoted these lyrics as those of a newly discovered poet, Bhanusingha).[3] Other 19th century figures in the Bengal Renaissance, such as Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, have also written in Brajabuli.[4] The extant Brajabuli literature consists of about 5,000 poems.[5]
Brajabuli is basically Maithili (as prevalent during the medieval period), but its forms are modified to look like Bengali.[1]
