The Ballads Of Akbar And Birbal

20• The List Of Blinds 🙈

Once when The King Akbar
Asked Birbal to count the blinds,
All around his kingdom
Whoever he could find.

So he went to the market and started
Cleaning shoes of the passer by's
While people noticed him and asked,
"What are you doing Huzoor? Why?"

And every time someone asks this
He noted down their names,
And at the end Akbar himself
Came and asked the question same.

The next day Birbal in the court
Bought a list of the blind he found,
That was a list extremely long
As only blinds are all around.

Then Akbar saw his name
At the bottom of the chart,
"Your Majesty, those who can't see me
Cleaning shoes you were also a part."

On hearing this Akbar laughed
And got what Birbal had done,
He wasn't finding any blinds at all
But just having some sort of fun.

So that's how 'The Clever Birbal'
Proved himself the smartest of all,
And with his great skills, he won
The hearts of the crowd in the hall.

Hey reader,
Do I deserve to be in a list of poets if one Akbar asks Birbal to make one?
