मुल्ला नसरुद्दीन के किस्से व हास्य-रहस्य

CHAPTER 1. 12. Mulla Nasrudin had just asked his newest girlfriend to marry him. But she seemed undecided. "If I should say no to you" she said, "would you commit suicide?" "THAT," said Nasrudin gallantly, "HAS BEEN MY USUAL PROCEDURE." 13. The young lady had said she would marry him, and Mulla Nasrudin was holding her tenderly. "I wonder what your folks will think," he said. "Do they know that I write poetry?" "Not yet, Honey," she said. "I HAVE TOLD THEM ABOUT YOUR DRINKING AND GAMBLING, BUT I THOUGHT I'D BETTER NOT TELL THEM EVERYTHING AT ONCE." 14. Mulla Nasrudin was looking over greeting cards. The salesman said, "Here's a nice one – "TO THE ONLY GIRL I EVER LOVED." "WONDERFUL," said Nasrudin. "I WILL TAKE SIX." 15. "Well, Nasrudin, my boy," said his uncle, "my congratulations! I hear you are engaged to one of the pretty Noyes twins." "Rather!" replied Mulla Nasrudin, heartily. "But," said his uncle, "how on earth do you manage to tell them apart?" "OH," said Nasrudin. "I DON'T TRY!" 16. "And are mine the only lips, Mulla, you have kissed?" asked she. "YES," said Nasrudin, "AND THEY ARE THE SWEETEST OF ALL." 17. "What made you quarrel with Mulla Nasrudin?" "Well, he proposed to me again last night." "Where was the harm in it?" 202 (Jokes of Mulla Nasrudin) 8 Osho
