Toss yesterday aside!
Step right onto the stage and dance!
A day like this will never come again,
So let yourself take root.
Look at the sky in your cup,
And run beyond time and space.
A hundred fireflies in the blue mist,
And you are the reason for it all.
With one shot, pure excitement!
With one shot, sheer joy!
With one shot, a spark of fury,
Surging wildly within!
Odiyamma, what heat!
The EDM beat,
Glowing radium lights,
The party is exploding!
Odiyamma, what heat!
The EDM beat,
Glowing radium lights,
The party is exploding!
Feel high,
Feel this high!
I am your dancing peacock,
Don't look anywhere else.
As time turns into night,
Let our conversation never sleep,
Don't keep my soul yearning.
It all begins with one glass,
With one glass comes pure bliss,
With one glass comes wild frenzy,
And now, where did the glass go?
Is it a hundred colors,
Or just a fading thought?
Are both of them real?
Is this a fleeting truth,
Or a lie that lingers?
Is it one of the two?
Did it grow wings,
Or did it scatter away?
Is it returning in a dream?
What kind of wheel...
...is spinning me around?
Déjà vu!
All your money is sinking deep,
Yet this whole place is filled with joy!
There is a vibe in my wine,
A heaven where you forget yourself!
