Abstract
Zahirad-Din Muhammad Babur, who was associated with Kabul for about twenty-five years of his forty-seven years of life, gained fame as the royal poet of Kabul in the late XVth and early XVIthcenturies. Despite the fact that Zahirad-Din Muhammad Babur reached Amir Temur on his father's side and Genghis Khan on his mother's side, he mentions these two relationships in his famous book "Baburi Tuzuki" and calls himself a Turk (Uzbek). After Uzbek Babur was defeated several times by Shaybani Khan, he was forced to emigrate from Ferghana to Kabul, the current capital of Afghanistan, in order to try his luck in Kabulistan.Here the people of Kabul (Kabulistan) welcomed Babur and Babur became the Uzbek king of Kabul and from there he invaded India to expand his rule. This brave cosmopolitan Turk/Uzbek world-goer was a clever poet, a brilliant writer and a powerful ruler -a king. Babur was 22 years old when he was crowned in Kabul, and Babur's nickname Mirza was changed to the title of Shah.
