A Chance Discovery

One evening, as my husband played some music, a song filled the air by pure chance. "Surmayee Ankhiyon Mein," the happy version from the movie "Sadma," sung by the legendary K. J. Yesudas, gently captured my toddler's attention. Its captivating melody and soothing lyrics seemed to cast a spell on my little one, gradually turning it into their favourite bedtime song. The peaceful lullaby-like quality of the song quickly became a part of our nightly routine.

To my delight, it wasn't just my baby who found solace in the comforting notes of "Surmayee Ankhiyon Mein." My elder son, drawn to the song's enchanting melodies, began to appreciate its beauty too. Inspired by his sibling's love for the song, he took up the role of a caring older brother. Every night, he would sing the song with a tender voice, lulling his little sibling into a tranquil sleep. Their harmonious connection, strengthened by the language of music, filled our home with warmth and love.

The Power of a Melodic Ritual

Music, memories, and melodies.

As a parent, I quickly realised the significance of establishing a consistent bedtime routine. Incorporating the magic of "Surmayee Ankhiyon Mein" into our nightly ritual brought a sense of familiarity and comfort to my baby's sleep routine. Dimming the lights, creating a calm ambiance, and playing the song became our signal that it was time to wind down and prepare for a peaceful night's rest. The soothing melody worked its wonders, easing my baby into a deep slumber.

The Transformative Effect

The impact of this special song extended far beyond just a lullaby. It became a symbol of love and connection within our family. As I watched my children bond through the shared experience of the song, my heart swelled with joy. The song's gentle embrace brought a sense of tranquility not only to my baby but to all of us, creating a serene atmosphere that fostered love, togetherness, and peaceful nights.
