Noor Jehan’s Song That Explains Your Racing Heart ❤️

 Hey, my dear friend,

I see that look in your eyes—the one that says your heart's been whispering secrets it can't quite keep quiet. You've been thinking about that someone special, haven't you? The one you haven't seen in what feels like forever, and suddenly, your chest tightens, your pulse races like it's chasing a memory down a long-forgotten road. It reminds me so much of that timeless song by the late Noor Jehan, "Dil Dhadakne Ka Sabab Yaad Aaya." Oh, how her voice captures it all—the ache, the flutter, the sweet sorrow of love that's distant but never truly gone. Let me sit with you here, like we're sharing a cup of tea on a rainy afternoon, and talk through this. Because I get it, truly I do. Your heart isn't just beating; it's yearning, and sometimes that yearning feels like it's unraveling everything inside.

Remember Noor Jehan? The Queen of Melody, they called her, with a voice that could melt stone and stir souls. In this ghazal, written by the poet Nasir Kazmi, she sings: "Dil dhadakne ka sabab yaad aaya... Wo teri yaad thi ab yaad aaya." It translates to something like, "I remembered the reason for my heart beating... It was your memory that came to mind now." It's as if she's saying, in that velvety, heartfelt way, that our hearts don't just pump blood—they pulse with purpose, often tied to the people we love. And when we haven't seen them in ages, that purpose resurfaces in waves of longing. Your heart aches because it's alive with emotion, racing to bridge the gap time has created. It's beautiful, isn't it? Painful, yes, but proof that love lingers, even in absence. I've felt it too—those quiet nights when a song like this plays, and suddenly, I'm back in a moment with someone far away, my chest tightening like it's holding onto them for dear life.

But here's where it gets real, friend. That racing heart isn't just poetic; sometimes it feels unsteady, like it's losing its rhythm. Medically speaking, when we miss someone deeply, our emotions can trigger what's called heart palpitations—those skips, flutters, or pounding sensations that make you wonder if something's wrong. It's often tied to stress or anxiety from that longing. See, when your mind dwells on that person, your body kicks into "fight or flight" mode, releasing adrenaline that amps up your heart rate and can make it beat irregularly. It's your heart's way of reacting to the emotional storm inside—like it's trying to run toward them, even if your feet stay planted. If it happens a lot, it might feel like your heart's losing stability, but know this: it's usually harmless, a sign of your deep capacity for feeling. Still, it can be scary, and I hate thinking of you alone with that worry.

The good news? You can gentle it back into balance, just like Noor Jehan's melody finds its resolve. Start with breathing—deep, slow breaths from your diaphragm, in through your nose for four counts, hold for four, out for four. It's like telling your heart, "Hey, we're okay, no need to race." Get moving, too— a gentle walk in the park or some yoga can release that built-up tension and steady your rhythm. Make sure you're sleeping enough; tiredness makes everything feel more intense. And talk about it, like we're doing now—sharing with a friend or journaling can ease the emotional load. If it persists, chat with a doctor; they might suggest simple checks or even mindfulness apps to keep anxiety at bay.

You're not alone in this, my friend. Songs like Noor Jehan's remind us that hearts are made for these aches—they're what make us human, what connect us across time and distance. But you deserve peace, too. Hold onto the beauty of that memory, let it warm you without overwhelming you. Call me anytime; we'll listen to the song together and let the words heal what they stir. Your heart's strong—it's just full of love.

With all my care, Your friend
