Indian Lullabies

Traditional songs to sing your little one to sleep — with lyrics, translations, meanings and easy chords.

India is home to more languages and lullaby traditions than almost anywhere else on Earth — from a Punjabi hush-song set to the rhythm of the dhol, to a Malayalam cradle song beside Kerala’s palm-lined backwaters, a Kashmiri lullaby beneath the Himalayas, and a Bengali evening song on the banks of the Ganges. Below are all 9 Indian lullabies published on Relax In No Time, grouped by region, each with lyrics, English translation, meaning, and easy guitar and piano chords.

These are traditional and original songs reflecting India’s vast linguistic and cultural diversity. The English lines presented on the pages below are singable adaptations, offered as a respectful tribute — not literal translations.
