un deux trois
Zofka Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Follow me — un deux trois
Sing with me — cette melodie
Cette fois
Je tourne et tourne autour de toi
Comme un papillon qui vole et croit
Au parfum de cette fleur la-bas
Je pourrais
Tout te donner si tu voulais
Me perdre dans ton univers
Planer, voler sans arret
Si on pouvait
Arreter le temps de l'ete
C′est tellement beau ce parfum leger
De ta peau empreinte de baisers
Fais un saut
Touche ce monde qui t'attend dehors
Cours le long du fleuve de l'amour
Garde le souvenir de ce jour.
Il suffit de dire
Que tu meurs d′envie
Que ton coeur me veut
Que tes mains m′effleurent
Il suffit d'aller
Respirer la mer
Se laisser tomber
Au fond des baisers
The lyrics to Žofka's song "Un Deux Trois" depict a passionate invitation to follow the singer on a journey full of singing, dancing, and love. The first verse encourages the listener to "come" and "follow" her lead, while also inviting them to "sing with me" to a catchy melody. The second verse compares the singer's affection for the listener to that of a butterfly drawn to a flower's scent. She offers to give everything to the listener and lose herself in their world, allowing them to "planer, voler sans arret" which means to soar or fly without stopping.
The chorus emphasizes simplicity, underscoring that all it takes is a strong desire to be with the singer, to touch and hold her, and to breathe in the ocean's fragrance. The final line encourages the listener to yield to the power of love's kisses, surrendering to the moment and forever cherishing its memory.
