Robert Mugallimovich Minnullin was born in Bashkiria on August 1, 1948 in the small village of Nazyade. Creativity began to manifest in childhood. Robert grew up among rural nature, on the banks of a picturesque river. The boy absorbed the beauty of his native land and early, while still in school, began to compose poetry. "Nugget" - this beautiful word used to be called such people. The biography of Robert Minnulin is full of bright events and achievements.

The poet was always interested in folklore, from which he drew a lot for his works. He sang the beauty of his native language, his musicality. Robert Minnulin created his own images and turns of speech, discovered the depth of folk wisdom.
The poet studied a lot, he graduated from Kazan State University, department of the Tatar language and literature. A competent, cultured person who grew up on the traditions of his native land, a singer of his small homeland, a poet, a citizen, a loving son - this is not a complete list of the qualities of Robert Mugallimovich.
Versatility of creativity
The author gave a large share of his talent to small readers. On duty, the writer often spoke with children, imbued with their feelings and aspirations. It is important that works for children have gained great popularity among the adult population. Robert Minnullin has his followers, students. He himself always considered himself primarily a "children's poet."
Childish dreams, impulses are close to the author. He knows the soul of a child well, with a humorous tone he talks about the perception of the world by children's eyes: “Oh, it would be nice if it snowed not in winter but in summer!” Adults, reading the poetry of the poet, are happy to remember what they were like in childhood, how bright and colorful the world was!
The works of Robert Mugallimovich can teach a lot: parents recognize themselves, their actions, and the kids too! In his poems in the Tatar language, Robert Mugallimovich again returns to childhood, unwittingly trying to make up for lost moments. “Our rural zoo”, “Holidays of childhood”, “Our tiger cub” - this is an incomplete list of collections for children. And for “The Biggest Apple in the World” they even brought it into “storytellers” - the poet was awarded a diploma named after G.Kh. Andersen.
Mother's Image
The gratitude of the mother runs through the many creations of Robert Mugallimovich Minnullin. But the most iconic is “Son and Mom.” In it, the author reflected the infinite absolute love of mother and son for each other. Mother is a person who shapes the world of a child and gives him all the primary skills and not only. She gives her son all the warmth of her soul, her heart and love.
Mom taught little Robert to take care of others, to help and support relatives. “Mothers beloved children, we know how to cherish happiness!” - the poet writes. This woman was everything for the boy; he replaced his father, who left too early. There are many memoirs in verses: this is the nature of his “small homeland”, where he grew up, and the harmony of his father, on which he nobly played, and numerous observations and discoveries from the life of a child.
About nature
In his descriptions of his native nature, Robert Minnulin reaches a very high emotional note, extols beauty, showing the features of a folk storyteller. He animates willows and poplars, a river and fluffy clouds in the sky! He associates trees with his loved ones: they are also faithfully waiting for him at the threshold of his native home, they are bored and sad. Robert Minnullin fills his poems with the soul of nature from the land.
Life is a song
Robert Mugallimovich Minnullin is the author of songs in his native Tatar language. The musicality of his soul led to the fact that his poetry began to compose music. “Life is a song,” says the poet. He is trying to penetrate the essence, to comprehend certain laws of being. A man of a wide soul who has absorbed beauty, the poet is ready to share it with everyone. And in general, it broadcasts unselfish love and honesty into the world, not being afraid to be too frank.

For many years he was engaged in political activities and held high positions in the leadership of Tatarstan.

The works of Robert Minnullin are read in many countries; his collections were published in Russia, Belarus, Croatia, and Poland. Later, his books began to be published in Bashkortostan. But at the same time, the author remains a modest man who does not require attention, speaks with irony of himself: "Every Tatar knows me."
I would like to emphasize that the poet always meets with his readers with great pleasure. He collects full halls, there are poems and songs. The most important reward for himself, Robert Mugallimovich considers the recognition of his people and readers from other countries. The best reward for the author is to hear how his songs are performed by people who do not even know about him!
