"Still awake !"
I think "Still awake" gives the meaning
especially when we put the " ! " mark
as it gives the impression of astonishment. In translation we have to
cancel words which will not affect;
EXAMPLE: You are still awake
Still awake
Here I don't have to put "You are"

"Are you still up?" "You're still up?"
While "sahi" means awake, the question is obviously directed to someone who is staying up late, so "still up" would be the common expression to use. Either forms of the question would work.
