Noor
King Raam Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

By the hummingbird your father found a light
And with it he lit a fire deep inside your heart
Your mother with her wings gives you shelter
From the darkness and terror with
All of her warmth and all of her love
This lullaby is bittersweet but one day you′ll understand
How blessed the world is to have someone like you
Baby noor
Baby noor
I'm begging you to breathe
Life into the shadows and the loneliest rose
Let the butterflies
Sleep and dream of spring
Winter will takes it toll, but patience is king
Your parachute will keep you safe
So don′t be afraid to fly as high
As you can but don't stare in the sun
All the diamonds don't mean a thing in this transient life
This moments all you have,
All that you want is right in front of you
Baby noor baby noor
I′m begging you to breathe
Life into the shadows and the loneliest rose
Let the butterflies sleep and dream of spring
Winter will takes it toll, but patience is king
Hush now little baby don′t you cry
Mamas gonna keep baby right by her side
Hush now little baby don't say a word
Your eyes are open just breathe and observe
Hush now little baby don′t you shed a tear
Your rays of light are cutting through fear




Hush now little baby this is not the end
The fruits of the stars will be ripe again
