Now my party booms here vaa mama
Nobody sleeps here no mama
Now my party booms here mamaa mamma…maa
Nobody sleeps here, no mama!
Now my party booms here, come on, mama!
Nobody sleeps here, no mama!
Now my party booms here, come on, mama!
This night is not enough, girl!
Don't close your eyes and sleep, girl!
Once this moment passes,
You won't catch it again, girl!
To rest in peace,
A time and hour will come!
That day is not today,
Dance away, let the song flow!
If till the very end,
You keep living only in dreams,
In reality, into shreds,
Your life will be torn apart, man!
In the years meant for dancing,
If you just lie around lifeless,
Your entire youth
Will be ruined and destroyed, man!
Nobody sleeps here, no mama!
Now my party booms here, come on, mama!
Nobody sleeps here, no mama!
Now my party booms here, come on, mama!
Nobody, nobody, nobody, no mama!
This is my party, my party, come on, mama!
Nobody, nobody, nobody, no mama!
This is my party, my party, come on, mama!
Nobody, nobody, nobody, no baby!
Nobody, nobody, nobody, no baby...
If the time of our death
Was known to us beforehand,
All the time we have to live
Would turn into hell out of fear!
In the years meant for dancing,
If you just lie around lifeless,
Your entire youth
Will be ruined and destroyed, man!
This night is not enough, girl!
Don't close your eyes and sleep, girl!
Once this moment passes,
You won't catch it again, girl!
To rest in peace,
A time and hour will come!
But today is not that day,
Dance away, let the song flow!
Nobody sleeps here, no mama!
Now my party booms here, come on, mama!
Nobody sleeps here, no mama!
Now my party booms here, mama mama... ma!
