Zafem’s Dlo Dous is a masterfully written song that, upon a deeper look, seems to use subtle metaphors to discuss intimacy within the context of a loving relationship.
While the song title, Dlo Dous or “Sweet Water,” might initially evoke a sense of tranquility and purity, a closer analysis of the lyrics reveals a different story—one that discusses intimate moments with sensuality, respect, and a healthy dose of humor.
Decoding the Lyrics: Understanding the Euphemisms
Verse 1 & Chorus
The opening lines and chorus set the tone for the song, emphasizing an ever-changing emotional landscape and a playful, experimental attitude toward lovemaking.
“Turning the house upside down” can be interpreted as a willingness to defy traditional roles and practices in favor of shared pleasure.
The phrase “hold on, don’t move, it’s all like sweet water, don’t turn away” could be seen as a sensual invitation to the partner to relax and enjoy the intimate experience.
Verse 2 & Bridge
The second verse and bridge of the song continue the theme of shared pleasure and exploration, with phrases like “honey flowing” and “let’s continue to add more fun, roll your tongue if you want, tell me some naughtiness.”
These lyrics are filled with euphemisms and playful innuendo that hint at oral sex in a respectful and consensual manner.
Dlo dous: A Celebration of Intimacy and Consent
“Dlo Dous,” with its metaphor-laden lyrics, is a song that encapsulates a healthy approach to sexual intimacy, particularly oral sex, in a romantic relationship. It is a celebration of shared pleasure, exploration, and mutual consent.
The lyrics emphasize the importance of understanding and responding to a partner’s reactions and comfort levels, key aspects of consensual sexual activity.
Moreover, Dener Ceide’s song is a testament to the importance of open communication and mutual respect in sexual relationships, breaking away from the often taboo subject of oral sex and portraying it in a healthy, positive light.
The Power of Subtle Expression
“Dlo Dous” stands out as a piece of art that addresses intimate themes with tact and creativity. It is a testament to Dener Ceide’s ability to take a sensitive topic and present it in a manner that is both respectful and enlightening.
By skillfully employing metaphors and euphemisms, “Dlo Dous” invites listeners to a deeper understanding of intimacy, emphasizing mutual pleasure, respect, and consent.
Zafem Dlo Dous Lyrics
Tout tan’l pa g’on sel pozisyon
chak jou se pa menm sansasyon
ka fe dezod tankou vyole la lwa
An nou vire kay la
An’n mete’l tet anba, tet anba
Menm si vwazin an ta rele, polis
Nou pap okipe’l menm sil frape, kraze pot la
Cheri fe bri lague ko’w, Moman sa seremonyel
Ko’n a ke’n resi fe yon sel
Kenbe la
rete pa bouje
Tout kom se dlo dous
Pa vire ko’w
Pa gade
Gon myel k’ap koule
Bagay bel nan men nou
A l’instant
mwen telman kontan we reyaksion’w, OO
M’pedi nan gade ekspresyon’w
Sanble’w sou , Genle’w bwe on ve zo devan
Mete’m devan, Se pa moun sa mwen te kontre avan
Doudou an’n kontinye met plis metriz
Pa woule lang ou si’w anvi, di’m kek betiz
Cheri fe bri lage ko’w, moman sa seremonyel
Ko’n a Ke’n resi fe yon sel
Kenbe la
rete pa bouje
Tout kom se dlo dous
Pa vire ko’w
Pa gade, femen jew pouw pa gade
Gon myel k’ap koule, ou pa we wap dekonsantre
Bagay bel nan men nou, nan moman
A l’instant
Oh Oh

Cheri kite’m fe zafe’m nan zafem

Saw gen nan lonbti la, Ou g’on ti sy bo kwis la
Kite’m dekouvri krech la, Tranpe mech la
sa’w gen nan zorey sa, Kite men’m kote’l ye a
Map rantre nan jaden’w lan, Al mare bet la
Sa’w gen nan rel do’w la, G’on ti mak deye tet la
Ou pral vire bo,Vire ko’w, Vire dada’w
M’ta monte montay la
Kite’m gade vale a
Cheri men ban’m bata
Ouve rout la
Ou pral vire bo
Vire ko’w, Vire dada’w

Bagay bel nan men nou, nan moman
A l’instant

Siw ta vle kouri nan lot chanm lan

Tout kom se dlo dous, Pa vire ko’w
Konnen map tann ou nan kizi’n lan

Cheri’w deja la’w pap kapab kache
