What do we call tashreef in hindi?

I want to know if Hindi has a concept of Adab, as in polite/respectful language.

eg. 'Tashreef Rakhiye' in Urdu means Sit Down, but in a far more politer way than 'Bheten'
 
What does 'Re' mean? I've heard it quite alot in Urdu as well as Hindi songs.
eg. Re Piya

There is. We add "Ji" when addressing someone elder to us. Uncle Ji, Aunty Ji, and so on. And Use "Aap" instead of "Tum/Tu" for elders or when showing respect.

For example if am talking to my friend, I ll say "Tum kab aaoge" or "Tu Kab aayega". But if am talking to my friends dad I ll say "Aap kab aayenge".

I don't think it means anything, its used as an interjection.

Urdu: Aman

Hindi: Shanti

I just realised:
Aman Ki Asha....is probabily Urdu. Another way to phrase it would be Asha-e Aman...I think..lol
EDIT: Izafat doesn't really go well with Indic words, so this is probably not right.

In Shuddh Hindi it would probably be Shanti ki Asha.

Asha is a Sanskrit word, So Aman ki Asha is part Hindi, part Urdu.
