Sapphire – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
You're glowing
You colour and fracture the light
You can't help but shine
And I know that
You carry the world on your back
But look at you tonight
The lights, your face, your eyes
Exploding like fireworks in the sky
Sapphire
Touching on your body while you're pushing on me
Don't you end the party, I could do this all week
We'll be dancing till the morning, go to bed, we won't sleep
ਚਮ-ਚਮ ਚਮਕੇ ਸਿਤਾਰੇ ਵਰਗੀ (Sapphire)
Touching on your body while you're pushing on me
Don't you end the party, I could do this all week
We'll be dancing till the morning, go to bed, we won't sleep
ਚਮ-ਚਮ ਚਮਕੇ ਸਿਤਾਰੇ ਵਰਗੀ
Look what we found, Karma reached out
Into our hearts and pulled us to our feet now
You know, the truth is we could disappear
Anywhere, as long as I got you there
When the sun dies, till the day shines
When I'm with you, there's not enough time
You are my spring flower, watching you bloom, wow
We are surrounded, but I can only see
The lights, your face, your eyes
Exploding like fireworks in the sky
Sapphire
Touching on your body while you're pushing on me
Don't you end the party, I could do this all week
We'll be dancing till the morning, go to bed, we won't sleep
ਚਮ-ਚਮ ਚਮਕੇ ਸਿਤਾਰੇ ਵਰਗੀ (Sapphire)
Touching on your body while you're pushing on me
Don't you end the party, I could do this all week
We'll be dancing till the morning, go to bed, we won't sleep
ਚਮ-ਚਮ ਚਮਕੇ ਸਿਤਾਰੇ ਵਰਗੀ (Sapphire)
(ਮਹਿਰੂਨੀ ਦੋ ਨੈਣ ਲੁਭਾਏ)
(ਚਾਂਦਨੀ ਚਮ-ਚਮ ਚਮਕਾਏ) You're glowing
(ਨੂਰ ਦਾ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਘੁੱਟ ਪਿਲਾਏ)
(ਜਿੰਦੜੀ ਬਣ ਜਾਏ)
You're glowing (ਅੰਬਰਾਂ ਦੀ ਤੂੰ ਝਾਲਰ ਪਾਏ)
You colour and fracture the light (ਬਦਲ਼ਾਂ ਦੇ ਲੱਠੇ ਸੂਟ ਬਣਾਏ)
But look at you tonight (ਕਿਰਣਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਰੰਗ-ਰੂਪ ਛਡਾਏ)
(ਮੋਰਣੀ ਬਣ ਜਾਏ) Sapphire
ਪਲਕਾਂ ਉਠਾਵਤੇ ਹਨੇਰੇ ਘਟਦੇ
ਉਂਗਲਾ’ਚ ਪਾਕੇ ਤੂੰ ਧਨਕ ਫਿਰਦੀ
ਕਿਵੇ ਰੱਬ ਨੇ ਦੋ ਨੈਨਾ ਉਤੇ ਨੀਲਮ ਜਾੜੇ?
ਚਮ-ਚਮ ਚਮਕੇ ਸਿਤਾਰੇ ਵਰਗੀ (Sapphire)
Touching on your body while you're pushing on me
Don't you end the party, I could do this all week
We'll be dancing till the morning, go to bed, we won't sleep
ਚਮ-ਚਮ ਚਮਕੇ ਸਿਤਾਰੇ ਵਰਗੀ (Sapphire)
Touching on your body while you're pushing on me (The lights, your face, your eyes)
Don't you end the party, I could do this all week (Exploding)
We'll be dancing till the morning, go to bed, we won't sleep (Like fireworks in the sky)
ਚਮ-ਚਮ ਚਮਕੇ ਸਿਤਾਰੇ ਵਰਗੀ (Sapphire)
Touching on your body while you're pushing on me (The lights, your face, your eyes)
Don't you end the party, I could do this all week (Exploding)
We'll be dancing till the morning, go to bed, we won't sleep (Like fireworks in the sky)
ਚਮ-ਚਮ ਚਮਕੇ ਸਿਤਾਰੇ ਵਰਗੀ (Sapphire)
The lights, your face, your eyes
Exploding like fireworks in the sky
Sapphire
