Shah Hussain is a 16th century Punjabi Sufi poet. Born to a weaver’s family, Hussain famously fell in love with a Brahmin boy – Madho Laal – and danced and sang his kafis in the streets of Lahore. The lovers share the same shrine in Baghbanpura and are known as one being, Madho Laal Hussain. Madho Laal Hussain’s urs is celebrated every year in spring, and is known as “Mela Chiragan” – Festival of Lights.
