Not much is known about Beni other than what can be read in the few poems his that are preserved in the Sikh Adi Granth.

Nirmal Dass, the editor and translator of Songs and Saints from the Adi Granth estimates from clues in the language of his poetry that Beni may have lived in the late 13th or early 14th century.
