During Emperor Akbar's reign, there was a poor man in Agra who was thought to bring bad luck. People believed that if any one looked at his face in the morning, they would have a bad day.

"Get lost, you ugly felow!" he would be cursed by one and all. "Hide your face before you kill someone with your eveil eye!" The emperor soon heared of this man's reputation and wanted to see him. The poor fellow, who had not harmed a single person in his life, was brought toAkbar. Akbar took a look at him and asked him to be brought back in evening. That particular day was an especially full and tiring day for the emperor and his courtiers. Somanymatters had to be attened to, thatAkbar even forgot to eat.

Then the emperor suddenly remembered that he had seen the face of the 'unlucky' man that morning. That was it. It was that man's entire fault, Akbar decided. Akbar called his courtiers and told them that he was going to have the 'unlucky' man executed. All of them agreed immediately.

That is, all except Birbal. Instead, Birbal let out a short laugh. "What's the matter, Birbal?" asked the angry emperor." You seem to find something funny!" "Nothing, Your majesty," replied Birbal. "You say this man brings bad luck because you had to go without food ever since you saw him this morning. Look at his luck.
