उर्मिले त्रिवार वंदन तुला (Urmile trivaar vandan tulaa) is a Marathi non-film bhajan rendered by Ram Phatak which I used to listen on the radio in my younger days. The meaning of the first line is ‘hey Urmila, my thrice salute to you’. The salutation by the poet is because she was an unsung character in Ramayan. She was the wife of Lakshman and younger sister of Seeta. When Ram was exiled along with Seeta for 14 years, Lakshaman decided to accompany Ram and Seeta to protect them during the exile. Urmila also wanted to join Lakshman. But she was asked by Lakshman to stay back and take care of his aged parents in Ayodhya during their absence. During those 14 years, Urmila is said to have slept continuously so that Lakshman can remain awake to protect Ram and Seeta.
I had forgotten about this Marathi song for a long time. While I was researching on Khayyam for writing a tributary article on the occasion of his 6thth Remembrance Day on August 19, 2025, I realised that his wife, Jagjit Kaur was the ‘Urmila’ in his life who sacrificed her aristocratic life to marry a struggling music director. While the selflessness of Urmila cannot be strictly comparable as Jagjit Kaur and her husband Khayyam spent their life together. But, apart from her aristocratic comfort, she sacrificed her playback singing career after her marriage with Khayyam sometime in 1954 in her own volition as she had said in her interviews. She did not seek playback singing assignments either from her husband or from others. Instead, she decided to assist her husband in whatever manner – either professionally or on the domestic front. She had said in an interview as late as 2019 that she recorded the song under Khayyam only because the scheduled playback singers did not turn up for recording the songs or the producers/directors of the films suggested her name for the songs.

Simti huyi ye ghadiyaan
Posted on: April 27, 2012

Last night, on our way back home after attending a marriage reception, I heard a song ‘simti huyi ye ghadiyaan’ in a FM Radio channel in our car. I had heard this song a few years back but I was not able to recall the name of the film, lyricist and music director except that I could recognise the voices of Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi. After getting nowhere to seek the answer, I asked my sister who was travelling with me and who has a good knowledge about old Hindi film songs, whether she knew about the song. Initially, she thought that I was testing her knowledge on the old Hindi film songs. It was only when I said in all seriousness that I did not know anything about this song other than the singers that she started applying her mind on my question.
