It certainly wasn’t Lata’s ‘swan’song

While Do Hanson Ka Joda could be translated to, “A pair of swans”, the song certainly wasn’t the swansong of the trio associated with it.

It was penned by Shakeel Badayuni, composed by Naushad Ali, and rendered by Lata Mangeshkar.

It was the shortest of the four tracks from Ganga Jumna on this blog – it was three minutes and 14 seconds long.

Although it was a song that expressed the female protagonist’s sadness on her separation, the song could aptly be described using the first word of its next line – Gajab, which means wonderful.
