Once upon a time very long ago
Hindustan,the land was called
Ruled by the powerful MUGHALS
known by one and all!
The most powerful among them
Akbar was his name
Far reaching his empire,
his power and fame!
Akbar had everything
everything but love
Love would be a blessing to him
a blessing from above!
In a kingdom not far from his,
Amber, a RAJPUT city
The princess of this realm,
known for her beauty!
Her name, Jodha Bai
a warrior was she!
Not only beautiful
but a sight to see!
Asking for her hand,
his position to be secure
King Akbar reaching Amber
to win her for sure!
Amber became an ally
and Jodha, his wife
The Rajputs and Jodha
now parts of his life!
The Rajputs,a warrior clan
became his sword and shield
Ready at his every call,
for him to weild!
Purely political an
alliance had been made
Jodha despised him and
away from him she stayed!
But fate had other plans
right from the start
They would be together
and so would their hearts!
Akbar was a Muslim,
and Jodha was a Hindu
But religion could not
separate the fate of these Two!
Akbar accepted her and
never asked her to change
Neither faith nor herself
a King indeed strange!
Wooing her with all his heart
a Bond was sealed
Hindu-Muslims lived together
and tensions soon healed!
But love as yet was not found
but friends they had become
Jodha and Akbar were getting
closer to the horror of some!
Jealous wives of Akbar and
neighbouring kings were there
Who plotted and prayed against
the birth of the Heir!
But love had finally blossomed
and Jodha his leading Queen
Jodha and Akbar were together
and their love finally seen!
Jodha gave
an heir to the realm
And a son to Akbar
who was overwhelmed!
Celebrations and festivities
were up in the air
The prince had come
their future,the heir!
Salim he was named
and next in line
To the throne of the Mughals
both strong and fine!
Jodha was always by
Akbar's side
Helping him rule
his empire wide!
A golden age was over when
Akbar passed away
In a beautiful mausoleum
his legend lives even today!
Jodha joined him years
later just as in their life
In death they were kept together
both husband and wife!
Immortal is their tale and
immortal is their love
'JODHA AND AKBAR'
were fated from Above!
(Jodha Bai in records is known as Marium-uz-Zammani,a title which meant 'Mary of the Age' (guess why)and in reality was known as Harkha Bai or Hira Bai,but their love was true!)
