Under these influences, he composed devotional lyrics which are still sung today. His own philosophy based on Hindu-Muslim unity, discarding the inequalities of caste, creed and religion. Poverty and death of his wife ([[Suman Ranganathan]]) made him a wanderer and he toured the country singing his songs. He died in 1889 on his birthday.
