Dordaneh: Persian Rhymes

A little home for the Persian nursery rhymes and lullabies of childhood — read them, and record them in your family's own voices. Offline, ad-free, nothing tracked.

Dordaneh (دُردانه, "the cherished one") is a small, lovingly made collection of traditional Persian nursery rhymes and lullabies — the ones generations of Iranian children grew up with.

Read each rhyme in beautiful Persian, with a transliteration to help you sound it out and an English translation to share its meaning. Then make it yours: record the rhyme in your own family's voices — a grandparent, a parent, an aunt far away — and play it back to your child anytime.

• A curated catalog of traditional Persian rhymes — public-domain folk texts, with credits where a creator is known. • Record your family's voices reading and singing each rhyme, and play them back. • Persian text, transliteration, and English translation, side by side. • Persian-first, right-to-left, with a calm dark theme made for bedtime. • Fully offline — no account, no sign-in, works with no connection. • No ads, no tracking, no advertising IDs.

Dordaneh is a non-profit labor of love, built in spare time for one family and shared freely with yours.
