Yon Ti Serment
by Arly Larivière · 2009 · kompa · 6:12 · Haitian Creole, French
Arly Lariviere calls the promise "Yon Ti Serment," as though its small size might make commitment easier to give or carry. The recording belongs to the 2009 catalog, while its Topic version appeared in 2015; it lasts six minutes and twelve seconds. Kompa gives the "little" oath a form that is not brief at all. Metadata says neither what the voice promises nor to whom, so this page writes no terms for it. It stays with the distance between words and weight: an oath may take little time to speak, but keeping it takes longer, and the song has room to test that difference.
