One day, Emperor Akbar was playing with his nephew in the court. Happily, he said to Birbal,
“Birbal, my nephew is the most beautiful and charming child in the world!”
Birbal stayed quiet and did not reply.
All the courtiers immediately agreed, “Yes, Your Majesty, it is true! Your nephew is indeed the most beautiful child.”
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
But after some time, Birbal calmly said,
“No, your majesty. Your nephew is not the most beautiful and charming child in the world.”
Suddenly, all the courtiers became angry at Birbal’s statement.
With patience, Emperor Akbar asked,
“Why do you think so, Birbal?”
Birbal replied,
“Your Majesty, please come with me tomorrow morning. I will show you the most beautiful child in the world.”
Akbar and the courtiers agreed.
The next morning, Birbal guided them and stopped to a small house.
He then said,
“Your Majesty, please watch the child from a distance.”
Akbar and the courtiers agreed.
They saw a small child playing on the ground with dust and some old toys.
Emperor Akbar said,
“Birbal, do you think this boy is the most beautiful child? He is skinny and not very attractive.”
Suddenly, the child’s mother arrived and said angrily,
“Who said my son is skinny and ugly?”
Akbar and the courtiers became silent and watched the mother and her child.
The mother looked at her son lovingly and said,
“My son, you are the most beautiful & charming child in the world.”
After seeing this, Emperor Akbar and the courtiers said,
“Birbal, you are right.”
Birbal replied,
“Your Majesty, for every mother, her child is the most beautiful and charming in the world.”
Moral of the story:
No one is ugly. Everyone has their own natural beauty, and everyone is special and beautiful in their own way.
