We have brought the Emperor's history down to the date contained in the words "Fath-i-daulat" \[930 = 1524\]. So much treasure fell into his hands, that all the people of the world benefited by it. In short, I went to India and was employed in the direction of the affairs of that country, as will be mentioned. The Emperor took possession of all the dominions of Sultan Iskandar Afghan. Rana Singa, one of the Rajas of Hindustan, came against Babar Padishah with an army of several hundreds of thousands. The Emperor engaged him in battle, and defeated him; and in his mandates took the title of Ghazi. After this, he marched towards Chitur, where he won decisive victories over the infidels. Returning, he devoted himself to the settlement of the whole of Hindustan. In the course of the year 937 he fell a victim to a severe illness, which the efforts of the doctors were powerless to cure. \[Two couplets\] .... As his end approached, he entrusted all the Amirs and people of the world to Humayun Mirza (whom he had recalled from Badakhshan) and his own soul to the Creator of the world. As soon as Humayun had mounted his father's throne, such persons as Muhammad Zaman Mirza (son of Badi-uz-Zaman Mirza, son of Mirza Sultan Husain), who had been in Babar Padishah's service, and was his son-in-law, together with others, began to raise the flag of revolt and sound the drums of sedition. But Humayun quieted them all by his kindness. He conquered what little of Hind had been left unsubdued by his father, and went into Guzrat and captured it; but on account of discord among his brothers and the Amirs, he had to abandon it. The rest of his story will be told later.
