Synopsis: This is the first historical, biographical saga of the Moghuls, exploring the wealth of Kabul in Afghanistan. A small hill called Gulkhaneh where the Biblical Cain is believed to be buried is the scene of action, introducing Babur as the King of Kabul. Babur traces his patrimony back to Tamerlane, sixth in line from him as his paternal ancestor, and fifth in line from Genghis Khan as his maternal ancestor. Kabul becomes his gateway to conquer Hindustan. At the battle of Panipat, Babur emerges forth victorious. Immediately, he sends his son Humayun to Agra to safeguard the wealth and family of the Raja slain in that decisive battle. The bereaved family of the Raja is so impressed by the gallant and courteous manners of prince Humayun that they feel consoled in their grief and mourning. Amongst them one Rani of Gwalior, charmed by the nobility of this young prince presents him with a gift of the famous diamond, Koh-i-Noor. Babur establishes his courts at Agra and Delhi. Gardens, palaces, mosques and colleges are built under his supervision, and he orders the construction of great highways from Agra to Kabul. Babur is a poet and a mystic, valorous as well as compassionate. He is an emperor who cares not for gold and jewels, but the jewels of knowledge in wisdom and understanding. For his valor, Babur wins the title of Babur, The Lion. When he gives away the wealth of the five kingdoms to the poor, he earns another title, King-Kalendar. His love for life and beauty earns him yet another title, First Great Moghul of India. When he dies at Agra at the age of forty-eight, his empire extends eastward from Kabul and Badakhshan through the Punjab to the borders of Bengal. His death is as poetic as his life, for he immolates his own life to save the life of his beloved son, Humayun. A Moghul and a mystic, he dies as he has lived, cultivating love and discipline, which sparkle to this day in his last injunction to his son. Do naught against thy brothers, even though they may deserve it.
