Birbal Daughter In The Royal Court-English Bedtime Stories-Once upon a time, Birbal’s daughter wanted to go to Akbar’s palace with her father. Birbal was hesitant at first, but she repeatedly asked him, so he decided to take her. Before leaving, Birbal told his daughter to speak politely if she met the king.
When they arrived at the palace, Akbar was very happy to see Birbal’s daughter. He asked her to come closer and asked, “Do you speak less or more?”
She replied, “I speak less when I speak to elders and speak more when I speak with children, depending on the situation.”
Akbar was surprised by her answer and asked for more details. She explained, “When I speak to elders, there is a lot of information to gain, so I use my ears mostly and talk less, so I get more information from them. When I speak to children, I become a teacher, so I talk more and share my thoughts with them.”
Akbar and the members of the court were impressed by her wisdom and rewarded her with prizes for her excellent answer. Birbal’s daughter was overjoyed, and she realized that it was important to listen carefully and speak accordingly, depending on the situation.
From that day on, Birbal’s daughter became known as the wise princess, and people sought her advice and wisdom. She continued to be polite, humble, and kind, and her words of wisdom helped many people in their daily lives.
