Jahangir

Once upon a time, there existed in ancient times a man named as Ghoorkaka. He dad three sons named as Varmankaka, Zoorkaka, and Jahangir. His two older sons were busy by agriculture, but the third one went to school from morning to night, and even at night was studying. They were living together happily until when suddenly Goorkaka became unwell and remained in bed and after passing ten days so, he called up his two older sons. When they came at his bed, he faced them and said: "Oh Varmankaka and Zoorkaka! Quite listen me. When I die, all thing I have become for you since you are illiterate, but promise me that you will protect Jahangir until he will ended his education. Afterwards you can leave him with himself."
The next day when sun rose, the two older brothers went to the farm and became busy to agriculture. Jahangir remained at his father. Ghoorkaka took three keys out of his pocket and gave them to Jahangir and said him to go out of the city where there were a hill beside of which there existed a white stone. He said his son that whenever in his life he had a big difficulty who could obviate it anyway he would have to climb the hill an take the stone. In such a case, he would be successful and would get a fortune and good position.
Ghoorkaka could not get out of bed and some days later died. Varmankaka took Jahangir to his home and promised him to take care of him for three years and would not let him to be worried. But it was less than one year that Varmankaka' wife began to nag, and when saw that her husband gave no importance to her nag, tricked and said her husband that Jahangir had foul eyes and had bad idea to her. Varmankaka was not aware of the trick of his wife, so he believed and expelled Jahangir from his home after beating him.
Jahangir went to Zoorkaka's home and inhabited there. But it was not more than ten days that Zoorkaka's wife who had seen that the trick of her sister in law was successful used the same trick against Jahangir, and again Jahangir was beaten and expelled from the home of this brother too.
Jahangir went out so sadly and saw there was no job for him and nowhere to go. He sat thinking and suddenly remembered the keys his father had given him. He stood up and ran and passed the desert and went up the hill and reached the same stone that his father had said him about it. As he took the stone, saw a small gate. He opened it by a key. A small cellar was appeared. He went down and saw a chest at a corner there. He opened it immediately. But instead of gold, there were a calico hat, a trumpet and a script in the chest. Jahangir took the hat in order to take it to market to sell it and to buy bread with its money. Whatever he searched in the market no one bought the hat. When he was unbearably hungry, he decided to go to bakery and took two loafs of bread. When he reached to the bakery, he took two loafs of bread. The baker said nothing. From there he went to the grocery and took some butter and date. The grocer said also nothing. Jahangir was being surprised why the baker and grocer did not say him anything that he noticed that whenever he put the hat on his head, no one could see him.
Jahangir put the hat on his head and went rounding in the shops of the market and took many good things and afterwards went outside of the city toward the field and spread his stall on the grass. When he ate food and was satisfied and lied down on the grass to rest, wished to sing. So he put the flute on his lips and began to play it and sing loudly in the field whatever he wished. Accidently, the ruler's daughter, who was living within a milestone from there, heard the sound of the flute and song of Jahangir. She went to the roof to see the owner of the voice. She saw a young man had spread his things on the grass and was playing and singing. The girl decided to find out who the young man was and what he was working there. She ordered her servants to take a pitcher of wine for her, and herself with some of her servants went toward Jahangir and went into a warm talking with him. She offered wine to Jahangir. Jahangir accepted and drank it. When he was drunk, he revealed the secret of the hat for the girl. When he had fallen blind drunk, the girl ordered the servants to take his furniture. As their work finished, they threw the unlucky young man to a mud pit and took his hat and went.
Jahangir was there at that night, and when Sun rose, he woke up. He noticed his furniture and hat did not exist. Sadly he got going toward the city and he was thinking about how he could satisfy his hungry stomach that suddenly remembered the scrip. He went up the hill and brought the scrip. He wanted to sell it, but no one bought it. He was passing through a lane in which children were playing with pebbles. A pebble fell into the scrip. He took his hand into the scrip to take out the pebble, but he noticed that the pebble had been changed into a gold coin. When he noticed this property of the scrip, he dropped several pebbles into the scrip and all of them changed into gold coins. In this way, he again provide many good things for himself and went to the same place he had spread his furniture beforehand. When his stomach became quite satisfied, he wished to sing again. Like the day before, he began to sing loudly. Again the ruler's daughter came and with cajolery deceived him and got the secret of the scrip. So she made him very drunk causing him to fall unconscious on the ground. Again the girl and servants took the scrip and his furniture and went.
In the morning, when Jahangir understood what happened to him, he went up the hill and brought the trumpet to sell it, but no one bought it. He was sad and so went to the desert. When he was so far, began to play the trumpet, and suddenly the desert became full of green and red tents and an army crowded around him. Some persons came and took Jahangir to a special tent and put a crown on his head and remained waiting for his order. Jahangir ate and drank very well and then thought if instead of blowing into the trumpet he sucked through the trumpet, these appeared things would disappear. He did this work and the tents and his army disappeared and he remained alone in the middle of the desert. Again he blew into the trumpet and the tents and the army appeared. But very soon the spies informed the ruler that a king with his army had encamped in the desert.
The ruler called up the authority of the city for consultation. The said the ruler that it was better that the ruler to send his daughter to this young king to understand why he had come here and what he wanted. When the ruler's daughter came and saw Jahangir, understood that who was the same young man that she was able to deceived him twice and this time too she should deceive him. So, as before she gave him much wine. When Jahangir was black drunk and unconscious, she immediately took the trumpet out of his hand and played it and the tents and the army disappeared. Jahangir remained alone on the ground.
In the morning, Jahangir woke up and noticed that again he was deceived by the girl and the means of his glad had been destroyed. This time also he departed toward the desert and went until he reached a spring beside of which was a very fruitful tree. He lied down under the tree to rest. Two beautiful birds came and sat on one of the branches of the tree. One of them said the other one that if the young man knew that everyone who ate from the fruit of this tree would become cow and when he hit a cow by the wood of this tree it would become human being, his problem would be resolved.
As Jahangir heard this, immediately got up and picked sufficient fruits from the tree and also cut a twig from a branch and got going toward the palace of the ruler. He intended to revenge the deceitful girl severely. When he approached the palace, he disguised himself as an old man and went and said the doorman that he had some fruits to gift the ruler. They took the fruits and put them in the hall and the ruler and the authority ate from them and so they all became cows and began to butt together. When the daughter of the ruler was informed, came and began to cry. The old man went ahead and offered her some fruit. She ate fruit at once became a beautiful white cow.
Immediately, Jahangir brought butchers and, except the white cow, sold the all the cows. The butchers took the cows and killed them. When the palace became deserted, Jahangir held the twig and hit the white cow by it. The white cow became the same girl. Jahangir said her the secret of the tree and cause her to understand well that she had to bring him all she had took from him beforehand otherwise she would be killed like his father. By seeing the fate of her father, the girl was regretful, so she soothed Jahangir. Instead, Jahangir brought a mullah and married her and became himself the ruler of the city too.
