Kabulliwala | Story Of Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore 159 Birthday 2020

My five-year-old girl does not live without speaking even a minute to Mini. One day she said in the morning, "Babuji, Ramdayal is a concierge, he calls 'Kaak' as 'crow'. He doesn't know anything, Babuji." He started the second thing before I said anything. "Look, Babuji, Bhola said that - If Elephant throws water from the trunk in the sky, so that's why it rains. Good Babuji, Bhola lies, isn't he?" And after that, she got into the game.

My house is on this side of the road. One day Mini was playing in my room. Suddenly she left the game and ran to the window and shouted, "Kabuliwale, O Kabuliwale!"

Hanging a bag of nuts on the shoulder, a tall cobbler was marching down the road at a slow pace with a ring of mango in his hand. As soon as he started coming towards the house, Mini escaped inside with his life. He was afraid that he might catch her. It was settled in his mind that by searching inside the bag of Kabuliwale, more children like him can get two or four children.

Kabuli greets me with a smile. I bought him some deal. Then he said that Babu sir, where did your girl go?

I summoned Minnie to overcome her fear. Kabuli tried to take the raisins and   almonds out of the bag and give them to Mini, but he did not take anything. Fearing, she clung to my knees. This is how he got introduced to Kabuli. A few days later, I was going out for some important work. Saw that Mini is talking a lot to Kabuli and Kabuli is smiling. Mini's bag was filled with almond-raisins. I asked Kabuli, "Why give it all?

Kabuli kept talking to Mini for a while. On the way, he put Athanni Mini in the bag. When I returned home, I saw that Minnie's mother was very angry with Kabuli for taking a spasm from her.

Kabuli kept on coming daily. He had acquired considerable authority over Mini's small heart by giving raisin almonds. There was a lot of talk between them and they used to laugh a lot. On seeing Rahmat Kabuli, my girl would laughingly ask, "Kabuliwale, O Kabuliwale! What's in your bag?"

I wanted to give him money but he said, 'Thank you very much Babu saheb! Leave the money. ' After that, he stopped and said that I have a daughter like you. I used to remember and bring little nuts for your baby girl. I don't come here to seal the deal.

He put a hand in the pocket of his kurta and got out a sloppy folded piece of paper and spread it around the fold with both hands and spread it on my desk. I saw that the piece of paper has the impression of a small hand claw. With a little soot in his hand, his impression was taken on the paper. With his daughter on his chest, Rahmat comes every year to seal a deal in the streets of Calcutta.
