Mom Thru Music & Lyrics

I want to share something divine I witnessed this morning. I was sitting in my dadee’s lap while my papa was busy watching “DASVIDANIYA”, a Hindi movie on Television. As soon as this song was played in the movie,



........tears came rolling down my papa’s cheeks. Initially, he tried his best to hide his tears but gave up soon after seeing my dadee wipe hers. Both had my rapt attention as they watched song unfold before their eyes. I would move my eyes between them trying to make out the connection between song, tears, music, lyrics and a bond between a mother and a son. What more can you expect from a 7 month old to do in those circumstances!

I am left wondering if it was the power of love, music or words that brought tears to the eyes of my papa and dadee.

For those who can’t understand Hindi language, this song sung by a son for her mother is about hope and the power of motherly love. Do notice the change in the expressions on the face of actor's mom after the pause in music. A not so perfect literal translation of this song goes like this:

Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...Mamma
Ho Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...Mamma

Your love shall change our fate.
It shall melt the chains of sadness that surrounds us
Even God cannot ignore your prayers as you are a world of prayers
Mom, My Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...... Mamma
Ho Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...Mamma

Our luck shall change for better
Life will again sing songs of happiness
I have no fear as you are a world of prayers
Mom, My Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...... Mamma
Ho Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...Mamma

Pause in music to ask his mom about the performance. Comes to know that she had forgot to put battery in her hearing aid. He then puts the battery inside to start from where he had left

You know I am different from others
As I am your loving child
You know I am different from others
As I am your loving child

To live this life is a bigger problem
You are an eternal world
When you get angry, I feel goof
When you pull my ears, it pains me a lot, my mom

Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...Mamma
Ho Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...Mamma

Your love shall change our fate.
It shall melt the chains of sadness that surrounds us
Even God cannot ignore your prayers as you are a world of prayers
Mom, My Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...... Mamma
Ho Mom, My Mom, Loving Mom...Mamma


Every child can relate to this....and I know why......
