In English, my father would be formal (as opposed to Dad, Daddy) but you could use my beloved (pronounce belove -ed)father.
Hope this helps

If you really want to show your respect, you could say 'My respected father', but if used often in day to day speech, it would sound a bit odd.
I cant think of any way to address your father when you want to bring your modesty in the picture.
In my view, the above answer should also apply when you need to refer to another person's father.

using "my father" is sufficient and respectful. it is formal English too. "dad" and "daddy" are informal words for "father."
"my liege" is English used in the Medieval Ages for feudal lords.
"my beloved" is used for someone you hold dear/close to your heart--a greatly loved person. so you COULD use "my beloved" IF you love your dad a lot :D

I call my dad "my father", my mom "my mother", and my parents " my parents" when speaking to my parents privately; otherwise, to not embarrass my parents I avoid a direct adress. If you say something similar to your wife, she'll feel special.

No, we don't have such terms in English.
We just say "Dad".
