Little Kabir Songs, inspired by Kabir's dohas

Listen to a song

Press play and sing along. The words light up as Little Kabir sings. Each song takes about twenty seconds.

Little Kabir and Khushi talking on the seat under the neem tree

Speak kindly

Boli Ek Anmol Hai

बोली एक अनमोल है, जो कोई बोले जाने,समझ बूझ और सोच कर, फिर ही मुख पर लाएँ।

Words are precious. Weigh them in your heart before they leave your lips. Speak only what is kind and true.

Notes from families

What families are saying

Parents in Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and London wrote to us after watching with their children.

Krishan & Preena loved the video and understood the meaning. Krishan wrote the doha on the whiteboard at home to remember it always.

Purvi · parent · Delhi

Amazing that you managed to keep the language simple enough. My angrez kids usually can't understand even basic Hindi vocab.

Parent · Indian family in London

My daughter has started saying ‘Kaal kare so aaj kar’ whenever she procrastinates. I couldn't be happier. Kabir is doing the parenting.

Nisha · parent · Mumbai

I am concerned about frenetic fast cartoons with loud decibels. This ‘slow’ animated series feels very apt, like old Doordarshan. Will watch with my son.

Piyush · parent · Bengaluru

Kabir is amazing. So good, absolutely perfect as it should be. Do this full time. This is Indian CoComelon level.

Shaurya · parent · Gurgaon

Loved the story, the animation, the song, the writing, the characters, everything! Sharing ahead with others!

Questions from parents

Things you might be wondering

What is Kabir for Kids?
A children's storytelling brand bringing Saint Kabir's wisdom to ages 5-9 through animated stories, Little Kabir Songs, a doha library, and school workshops.
How can my child watch the videos?
Free on YouTube. Visit youtube.com/@KabirForKids, browse the Watch page, or open the Songs page for Little Kabir Songs.
Is Kabir for Kids religious?
No. Kabir belonged to no religion - and neither does Little Kabir. Kabir for Kids teaches universal values: kindness, patience, humility, honesty. No doctrine, no scripture. Designed for children of every faith. Read more
What will my child actually learn?
Values through story and song, not lecture. Children meet Saint Kabir's teachings through memorable dohas about thoughtful speech, patience, action, humility and dignity. The learning is behavioural, not academic. Explore the five teachings
What age group is this for?
Designed for children aged 5-9. Simplified Hindi with English bridging - works whether your child speaks Hindi at home or is just beginning the language.
What are dohas, and why are they good for children?
Two-line couplets in Hindi from the 15th-century poet Sant Kabir. Short, rhythmic, memorable - nursery rhymes with real wisdom inside. They cover themes like kindness, patience, honesty. Children carry them into adulthood.
Is this right for a 5-year-old? A 9-year-old?
Yes to both. Gentle pacing for younger viewers; the doha meanings add a critical thinking layer for older ones. Children move through the same stories with different eyes as they grow.
Can schools use Kabir for Kids?
Yes - interactive workshops for classrooms of 30-40 across India, plus teacher training. Learn more about school programmes
