Isang Gabi Lyrics Translation – Apekz
The songwriter mentions sweaty palms and a giddy rush to describe the intensity of the connection. A line like ‘I’m constantly craving you’ shows how the narrator is hooked. The performer brings these moments to life with raw energy.
Di lang pang isang gabiThis isn’t just a one-night stand,
Palagi na nasasabikI’m constantly craving you.
Kapag ikaw na ang katabi parang sinasapianWhen you’re beside me, I feel like I’m possessed,
Di lang pang isang gabiand not just for a single night.
Ang petsa ay nalalapitThe date is getting closer,
Mga palad ko’y pinapawisan kasi gusto na kitang makitaand my palms are sweating because I’m dying to see you.
Teka ala una ataWait, I think it’s one in the morning,
Pero eto ka at gustong sumamabut here you are, wanting to come along.
Masaya at busog tumatawaHappy and full, laughing out loud.
Kala mo di magulo pagsasamaYou’d think our connection isn’t complicated.
Di alam kung san papunta gumagalaWandering without knowing where we’re going,
Kaya inaya sa malambot na kamaso I invited you to the soft bed.
Ang sinabi mo sa akin ikaw ahYou teased me, saying, “Oh, you…”
Parang masyado ka nang namimihasa“It’s like you’re getting too used to this.”
Kaya sinabi ko na gusto ko lang na magpahingaSo I told you I just wanted to rest,
Pero ang tingin mo na sa akin ay ibabut the way you’re looking at me is different.
Parang alam mo ang nasa isipanIt’s like you know what’s on my mind.
Nakatitig ka at nakangiti langYou just stare and smile,
Nakatago sa salitang kaibiganhiding behind the word “friend,”
Pero ang damdamin ay di na mapigilanbut the feelings can’t be held back anymore.
Di lang pang isang gabiThis isn’t just a one-night stand,
Palagi na nasasabikI’m constantly craving you.
Kapag ikaw na ang katabi parang sinasapianWhen you’re beside me, I feel like I’m possessed,
Di lang pang isang gabiand not just for a single night.
Ang petsa ay nalalapitThe date is getting closer,
Mga palad ko’y pinapawisan kasi gusto na kitang makitaand my palms are sweating because I’m dying to see you.
Baby ang lakas ng tamaBaby, the ‘hit’ is so strong
Ohh kapag kasama kawhenever I’m with you.
Nako parang lumalala naOh no, it feels like it’s getting worse,
Lumalalim pagsasamathis bond is getting deeper.
Baby ang lakas ng tamaBaby, the ‘hit’ is so strong
Ohh kapag kasama kawhenever I’m with you.
Parang kaming meron kontrataIt’s like we have a contract,
Kaya ayoko ng umasa paso I don’t want to get my hopes up.
Ang dami ng naiiritaSo many people are getting annoyed,
Lalo pag nakikitang kapiling kitaespecially when they see me with you.
Ang problema di ko rin masisi silaThe problem is, I can’t even blame them.
Bakit ba kasi ako lagi dinidikitanWhy do you always stick so close to me?
Ang dami ng naiiritaSo many people are getting annoyed,
Lalo pag nakikitang kapiling kitaespecially when they see me with you.
Ang problema di ko rin masisi silaThe problem is, I can’t even blame them.
Bakit ba kasi ako lagi dinidikitan mo babyWhy do you always stick so close to me, baby?
Ayaw mo kasi ng kinukulong kaIt’s because you hate being tied down,
Gusto kung san san pumuntawanting to go wherever you please.
Kung sa iba ito pasensya ay ubos naIf this were anyone else, my patience would be gone.
Gusto mong tumaya pero di sagad pumustaYou want to play the game but won’t go all in.
Saka gusto mo sayo lang tutupiAnd you want me to fold only for you,
Ayaw mong may iba sakin na nangungulithating it when others try to get my attention.
Ayaw mo na rin sabihin na kita tayo ulitYou don’t even want to say “let’s meet again,”
Kasi ngayon ay parang ayaw mo ng umuwibecause right now, it seems like you don’t want to go home.
Di lang pang isang gabiThis isn’t just a one-night stand,
Palagi na nasasabikI’m constantly craving you.
Kapag ikaw na ang katabi parang sinasapianWhen you’re beside me, I feel like I’m possessed,
Di lang pang isang gabiand not just for a single night.
Ang petsa ay nalalapitThe date is getting closer,
Mga palad ko’y pinapawisan kasi gusto na kitang makitaand my palms are sweating because I’m dying to see you.
Baby ang lakas ng tamaBaby, the ‘hit’ is so strong
Ohh kapag kasama kawhenever I’m with you.
Nako parang lumalala naOh no, it feels like it’s getting worse,
Lumalalim pagsasamathis bond is getting deeper.
Baby ang lakas ng tamaBaby, the ‘hit’ is so strong
Ohh kapag kasama kawhenever I’m with you.
Parang kaming meron kontrataIt’s like we have a contract,
Kaya ayoko ng umasa paso I don’t want to get my hopes up.
Lakas ng tama ko sayo parang tulegI’m hit so hard by you, I’m acting crazy.
Nagiibang anyo sa twing akoy kinikiligI transform whenever I feel that giddy rush,
At di na matago pawis na nanlalamigand I can’t hide this cold sweat.
Ramdam mo yung nginig ng katawna pag katabi kaYou can feel my body trembling when I’m next to you.
Don’t be afraid I see the truth insideDon’t be afraid, I see the truth inside.
I know u cant decide but baby eyes cant lieI know you can’t decide, but baby, eyes can’t lie.
Pick me up tonight coz we dont need to hidePick me up tonight ’cause we don’t need to hide.
Di nako aalis I make you feel alrightI’m not leaving, I’ll make you feel alright.
Di lang pang isang gabiThis isn’t just a one-night stand,
Palagi na nasasabikI’m constantly craving you.
Kapag ikaw na ang katabi parang sinasapianWhen you’re beside me, I feel like I’m possessed,
Di lang pang isang gabiand not just for a single night.
Ang petsa ay nalalapitThe date is getting closer,
Mga palad ko’y pinapawisan kasi gusto na kitang makitaand my palms are sweating because I’m dying to see you.
Baby ang lakas ng tamaBaby, the ‘hit’ is so strong
Ohh kapag kasama kawhenever I’m with you.
Nako parang lumalala naOh no, it feels like it’s getting worse,
Lumalalim pagsasamathis bond is getting deeper.
Baby ang lakas ng tamaBaby, the ‘hit’ is so strong
Ohh kapag kasama kawhenever I’m with you.
Parang kaming meron kontrataIt’s like we have a contract,
Kaya ayoko ng umasa paso I don’t want to get my hopes up.
