i think in this doha kabir ji is talking about one of three discipline guru ji talked in first video of ashtavakra geeta where he talks about qualification on spiritual path. The discipline of body, discipline of speech and discipline of mind. so kabir ji in this doha talking about discipline of speech i feel in context of spiritual growth (and remember every thing is spiritual aspect of your life whether you meditate or go to pub it influences your spirit like wise) anyways so in this doha he says you should speak such which is pleasant you as well as others and when you say sometime you have to say unpleasant things to other but you can tell them in words which are not blunt not harsh... and i think guruji is the best example to follow this he even say things for our growth but is such words that we just take with smile. isnt it? and more over about ego see guruji when he talks and walk in world for him every thing belongs to HIM then where is separateness where is ego...
