Tel te Mora Makhi Khan

Olop kotha pora kineka bisi jinis biya hoi jai, etu laga kotha khan: sugondhi tel te mora makhi, ghura te bohi thaka nokor aru theng pora khuj kora raja laga chokra, nijor kotha pora nijor ke nash kora murkho. Thanda mon pora raja laga khong ke kom kori diye; namai aha chhat aru bisna ghor te koi diya bisna kotha—duita bi olop pora shuru hoi.

Adhyay 10.

Mora makhi khan pora sugandhi tel ke gandha aru khomir kori diye; tene nisena olop murkhota tu gyaan aru sonman pora bhi bhari hoi. Gyaani manuh laga mon tu dyna phale jhuki thake, kintu murkho laga mon tu baya phale. Murkho tu rasta te juwa homoi te bhi, tar gyaan nai, aru tai murkho ase koi kene sob ke dikhai diye. Jodi cholawta laga khong tumar uporte uthe, tumar jagah nachari dibi, kilemane shanti pora dangor golti khan ke thanda kori diye.

Suryo laga nichete moi ekta biya dekhise, cholawta pora aha ekta bhul nisena: murkhota ke bisi untcha jagah te rakhi ase, kintu dhoni manuh khan niche jagah te bohe. Moi ghora uporte noukar khan ke dekhise, aru raja laga bacha khan noukar nisena theng pora berai thaka dekhise. Kun pora gaad khundibo, tai eitu bhitor te giri bo pare, aru kun pora deul bhangabo, tai ke saap pora kamuribo pare. Kun pora pathor khan ke kati ulai, tai eitu pora dukh pabo pare, aru kun pora khuri khan ke phatai, tai eitu pora khotra te thake. Jodi kurhi tu bhomta hoi aru tar dhar ke tej nakore, tenele bisi takot lagai bo lage; kintu gyaan pora saphalta ane.

Jodi saap ke bosh nakora age te tai kamure, tenele bosh kora manuh eku labh napai. Gyaani manuh laga kotha pora tar ke anugrah ane, kintu murkho laga oth pora tai ke khotom kori diye. Tar kotha laga shuru tu murkhota ase, aru tar kotha laga ses tu biya pagla ase. Hoilebi murkho tu kotha koi thake. Ki ahibo eitu kun bhi najane, aru tar pichete ki hobo, eitu kun pora kuntu manuh ke kobo pare?

Murkho khan nijor kaam pora nijor ke thaki diye, kilemane tarkhan sohor laga rasta bhi najane. Hai tumi, desh, jitia tumar raja ekta bacha ase aru tumar raja laga bacha khan phojur te bhoj khai. Dhonyo tumi, desh, jitia tumar raja bhodro manuh laga putro ase aru tumar raja laga bacha khan thik homoi te bhoj khai— takot nimite, aru nisa nimite nohoi. Alsi pora chath laga khuri khan jhuki jai, aru khali thaka hath pora ghor pora pani giri. Roti tu hasi nimite bonai, aru angur ros pora jivon ke khushi kori diye, aru poisa pora sob jinis laga jawab diye. Tumar bhabona te bhi raja ke shrap nadibi, aru tumar shuwa kamra te bhi dhoni ke shrap nadibi; kilemane akas laga chiriya pora tumar kotha ke loi jabo pare, aru pankha thaka ekta jiv pora tumi ki koi eitu janai dibo pare.
