poetry/stories for babies

Waheguruji da Khalsa, Waheguruji di Fateh!

I have an 8 month old baby and would like to introduce small poems, rhymes, lullaby's related to sikhism and guruji's to him. please help me with the same or let me know links where I could find them on the net

Veerji, I don't think you have realized the amount of skilled poets on this forum. Instead of asking for already made poems, ryhmes, lullaby's etc, you should ask sangat to make some new ones for you!

Would you like these in Punjabi or English?

Pikaboo, and they come for you
the Singhs on their horses,
the Mughals they overthrew
Pikaboo, and they come for you
adorning Guru Sahib's Bana
staying Loyal and True
Pikaboo, and they come for you
the Mughals are no comparison
to the Singh crew
Pikaboo, and they come for you
Massa Rangarr's head chopped off
and faced the death's noose
Now go to sleep!

twinkle twinkle little star
may I ever be free of vikaar
up above the world so high
Naam naal hove mann di safaayee
twinkle twinkle little star
may I ever be free of vikaar

humpty dumpty sat on a wall
paapaan di thhand ch paavo Bani di shawl

baa baa black sheep have you any wool
Amritvele uthho te mildi kirpa full

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
paraayee nu apni maata jaano, ya sister ya daughter

Kulbir Singh

ਉਠ ਮੇਰੇ ਬਚੇ ਨਾਮ ਜਪ
ਨਾ ਤੂੰ ਮਾਇਆ ਚ ਖ਼ਪ

ਉਠ ਮੇਰੇ ਪੋਲੂ ਪੜ ਬਾਣੀ
ਸੋਹਣੀ ਤੇਰੀ ਆਵੇ ਰਾਣੀ

ਉਠ ਸੋਹਣੇ ਪਾ ਲੈ ਬਾਣਾ
ਪਾ ਇਸ ਨੂੰ ਲਗਦਾ ਰਾਣਾ

ਉਠ ਮੇਰੇ ਕਾਕੂ ਛੱਕ ਗਫਾ
ਪਾ ਗੁਰ ਚਰਨਾ ਨੂੰ ਜਫਾ

ਉਠ ਮੇਰੇ ਤਾਰੇ ਪੜ ਗੁਰਬਾਣੀ
ਤੇਰੇ ਮਾਪਿਆਂ ਛਾਂ ਇਸਦੀ ਮਾਣੀ

Vaheguru jee ka Khalsa Vaheguru jee kee fateh!

Bahut Khoob Sahib Singh jee. You have written very Gurmat oriented Loree for kids.

I would say the best Lori for kids would be to sing Gurbani to them.

Kulbir Singh

You're right Bhai Kulbir Singh jeeo. One Gurmukh couple that I know here, their daughter is only 2.5 years old and knows Mool Mantar, full Fateh, ooda-ayda, and several Gurbani tuks already. Daas taught her how to say "chardi kala", so now whenever anyone asks her "ki haal aa", she says "chadi kada".

Paramhans jeeo, I missed your poem yesterday. It's splendid! The last couplet is too much for a toddler, though.

Kulbir Singh

Vaaah Bhai Mehtab Singh jeeo,

Kyaa Remix Banayaa!

I think this is the best "poetry" you can sing to your child. As Bhai Kulbir Singh jee has said, Gurbani is above all:
