Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sabi by MohBad from Spanish to English.
Won ni 'kin wa baba toh sabi'
They said I should come to the father who knows
K'owa w'ori mi, k'otoh saasi
Let everyone look at me, let them not be surprised
Kin ma shey ya'wo l'owo Lati
I may not be a beggar for money
Mo 'morin ko, won fe je ko dabi
I'm not a fool, they want me to be like that
Won ni 'kin wa baba toh sabi'
They said I should come to the father who knows
K'owa w'ori mi, k'otoh saasi
Let everyone look at me, let them not be surprised
Kin ma shey ya'wo l'owo Lati
I may not be a beggar for money
Mo 'morin ko, won fe je ko dabi
I'm not a fool, they want me to be like that
omo logo toh sabi
Child of a rich man who knows
Omo gbera tan, o b'omi si Garri
Child of a brave man, he drinks water with Garri
O wo Yankee, o wo Atlanta, per roof
He sees Yankee, he sees Atlanta, per roof
Eyan Baba Fela ni, ke gba fun
He's like Baba Fela, give it to him
omo olope toh sabi
Child of a poor man who knows
Omo gbera tan, o b'omi si Garri
Child of a brave man, he drinks water with Garri
O wo Yankee, o wo Atlanta, per roof
He sees Yankee, he sees Atlanta, per roof
Eyan Baba Fela ni, ke gba fun

Uhhn, kilode o jere?
Uhhn, what's wrong with you?
Mo ma j'aye mi k'oto fun feere
I enjoy my life, let them be surprised
Oshey, oshey, oshey o jere
Thank you, thank you, thank you, what's wrong with you?
Tinba shishee, kin ma ko're oko de'le
If I'm silent, I'll be called a fool
Won gun'yan mi kere
They're mocking me
Mo fi'mu won fon feere
I laugh at them, let them be surprised
Ninu aye, mio kere
In life, I'm not a fool
T'oba de igboro, k'olo beere
If you come to the city, you'll see
Won ni 'kin wa baba toh sabi'
They said I should come to the father who knows
K'owa w'ori mi, k'otoh saasi
