Lyrics
Something hides in every night
There's something present in every night.
Brings desire from the deep
It brings desire from deep within.
And with it comes a burning light
That something brings a passionate or intense feeling along with a bright light.
To keep us from our sleep
This intense feeling prevents us from sleeping.
And as the full star tries his best to make the white pearl shine
A metaphorical reference to someone trying their best to make something beautiful (the white pearl) shine.
Glances of a new day have arrived
New opportunities or beginnings have appeared.
And though he's not alone, he fears to never love another
Despite being in the presence of others, there's a fear of never loving another person.
And leave his heart forever with her smile
Leaving one's heart permanently captivated by someone's smile.
Haa-aah
Habibi, light is burning

Something died within a soul
Something vital or lively has been lost within a soul.
Left the eyes to rust
This loss has caused the eyes to lose their liveliness or become dull.
And every time it is recalled

And meanwhile, a whole lot goes down
While events are happening, especially in difficult times, a connection between individuals exists.
Somewhere in the darkness, us together for a while
Amid darkness, there was a shared period of togetherness.
You loved it then, so did I
Both parties enjoyed it, implying mutual affection.
A feeling deep inside you wants to love it all again
An inner feeling compels one to embrace everything once again.
Now don't leave it there, just give it a chance
Encouragement not to abandon the situation but to give it an opportunity.
If only I'd forget you after one last dance
Wishing to forget after one last interaction but finding it challenging due to the pervasive presence of the beloved.
But you're everywhere, yes you are
The beloved's presence is omnipresent, felt in every aspect of life.
In every melody and in every little scar
The beloved is found in every memory and in every emotional wound.
Ah yes you are, you are
Reaffirmation of the beloved's pervasive presence.
