Namaste! Whisper gently perchance we disturb the flowers Walk softly as the earth is covered with a carpet of Parijat flowers Look, even the birds are saying a prayer Have sweet thoughts as this is An Indian Morning.

Dads are like the silent protectors, always there but rarely noticed. They sacrifice so much yet often go unrecognized. So, let's celebrate Father's Day with more Hindi songs that capture the essence of fatherhood and celebrate Dads. DILBARO | RAAZI | 2018 Beginning with moving Kashmiri vocals, the song beautifully captures the emotional journey of a bride as she bids farewell to her family, especially her father, on her wedding day. The song symbolizes the traditional Indian wedding rituals and the father's role in his daughter's life. The song's emotional lyrics and beautiful melody evoke intense feelings of farewell for both father and daughter. 04-DILBARO CD MISC-20250615 TRACK#04 3:40 RAAZI-2018; HARSHDEEP KAUR, VIBHA SARAF, SHANKAR MAHADEVAN; SHANKAR-EHSAAN-LOY; GULZAR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqUXVw0WlXc HAANIKAARAK BAPU | DANGAL | 2016 This song has playful yet meaningful lyrics to show how as kids we feel annoyed when our fathers tell us to get up early, to eat healthy, to study, and not watch TV. The song essentially celebrates the unconventional parenting style of the father, showcasing his dedication and belief in his daughters' abilities. In simple words, it's a fun yet loving tribute to a father's dedication to his daughter's dreams. 05-HAANIKAARAK BAPU CD MISC-20250615 TRACK#05 5:04 DANGAL-2016; SARWAR KHAN, SARTAZ KHAN BARNA; PRITAM; AMITABH BHATTACHARYA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7F6ZlEoIUI PAPA MERI JAAN | ANIMAL | 2023 This song beautifully expresses the deep bond between a son and his father. The son sees his father as the only guiding star in his life, his whole world. He acknowledges that there's no one else he looks up to as much as his father. The song expresses the paternal bond between father and son and it's one of the recent songs where the son is expressing love for his father. 06-PAPA MERI JAAN CD MISC-20250615 TRACK#06 3:04 ANIMAL-2023; SONU NIGAM; HASHAVARDHAN RAMESHWAR; RAJ SHEKHAR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTmQeQSwwbk PAPA TOH BAND BAJAYE | HOUSEFULL 2 | 2012 This song on Father's Day reminds us that dads aren't just providers; they're also a source of laughter. It perfectly captures the relationship between a kid and their dad. It means dads are always there to correct us, no matter what we do. They want to guide us, sharing their experiences so we don't make the same mistakes they did. It's like they're always ready to grill us for every little mistake, showing how much they care and how eager they are to help us improve. 07-PAPA TOH BAND BAJAYE CD MISC-20250615 TRACK#07 4:12 HOUSEFUL 2-2012; NEERAJ SHRIDHAR; SAJID-WAJID; SAMEER AANJAAN https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltwMFKXyTPQ A father is neither an anchor to hold us back nor a sail to take us there, but a guiding light whose love shows us the way. Dads might seem harsh sometimes, but it's because they want us to be strong and build a spine to stand straight against the world. Celebrate Father's Day by honoring the heroes who shape our lives. It's time to shine a spotlight on their love, sacrifice, and strength, acknowledging and appreciating their importance just like the melodies that stick with us. 08-PITAAH CD MISC-20250615 TRACK#08 5:33 PITAAH-2002; UDIT NARAYAN; ANAND RAJ ANAND; PRAVIN BHARDWAJ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4fbNmlFfYo 97-ANTMEIN-SIGNOFF – 2:16 VOICE OVER – PITAAH ---------------------------------------------------------- अंत मे छोटी सी बात ‘An Indian Morning’ की तरफसे: ---------------------------------------------------------- “When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years.” -Mark Twain “जब मैं चौदह साल का लड़का था, तब मेरे पिता इतने अज्ञानी थे कि मुझे उनका आसपास होना बिल्कुल नहीं पसंद था। लेकिन जब मैं इक्कीस का हुआ, तो मुझे बेहद आश्चर्य हुआ कि सात वर्षों में उन्होंने कितना कुछ सीख डाला था।” -मार्क ट्वैन ---------------------------------------------------------- हमारा आपके साथ आज यहीं तक का सफर था. तो चलिए आपसे अब हम विदा लेते है. अगली मुलाकात तक खुश रहिये, स्वस्थ रहिये और हाँ An Indian Morning पर हमसे मिलते रहिये. हंसते रहिये, क्योंकि हंसना निशुल्क है और एक सुलभ दवा है। Well, that's all the time we have with you today!
