Say Yes, Yes, and again Yes!
Explanation:
Oh demeli, demeli, ne demeli?

Of course, when it comes to terms of endearment, a 1:1 translation shall most certainly fail. You have to look beyond the boundaries of meanings carried by words. You have to shift from truth to realm, you have to become an associate of the supreme being, you have to become the writer, the person whp goes through all of these.

Oh demeli demeli, ne demeli? is in my humble opinion most certainly a literary reflection of the expression of carnal joy, extreme bodily pleasure and the urge for more.

Thank you! Life IS beatiful.
