[Verse 1]

أبو سجاد يا عمي

Abu Sajjad ya 'ammi

Abu Sajjad, my uncle (or 'man')

بالجيب ماكو فلس

Bil jayb ma ku fils

There's no penny in his pocket

والمحفظة خالية

Wal mahfadha khaliya

And his wallet is empty

ويومية يندسكول افلس

Wa yawmiya yindas kul aflas

And every day he says, 'I'm broke'

[Chorus]

أبو سجاد عنده فلوس

Abu Sajjad 'indahu fulus

Abu Sajjad has money

بس يسوي روحه مفلس

Bas yisawwi ruhahu muflis

But he pretends to be broke

يحولوله من بره

Yihawwilulu min barra

They transfer to him from outside

والفلوس عنده تتكدس

Wal fulus 'indahu tatakaddas

And the money piles up with him

[Verse 2]

صاحبنا اجاه

Sahibna ajah

His friend came to him

كاله وينهن الفلوس؟

Kalah waynihin al fulus?

He said, 'Where is the money?'

صديقه يضحك

Sadiqah yidh'hak

His friend laughs

يا عمي بطل هالدروس

Ya 'ammi battil hal durus

Oh man, stop these lessons (or 'this act')

[Chorus]

أبو سجاد عنده فلوس

Abu Sajjad 'indahu fulus

Abu Sajjad has money

بس يسوي روحه مفلس

Bas yisawwi ruhahu muflis

But he pretends to be broke

يحولوله من بره

Yihawwilulu min barra

They transfer to him from outside

والفلوس عنده تتكدس

Wal fulus 'indahu tatakaddas

And the money piles up with him

[Bridge]

الربع كشفوه

Ar-rubu' kashafuh

His friends exposed him

كل التحويلات شافوه

Kul at-tahwilat shafuh

They saw all the transfers

بعد ما يقدر يضم

Ba'd ma yaqdir yidumm

He can't hide it anymore

سر الفلوس انفك

Sirr al fulus infakk

The secret of the money was revealed

[Chorus]

أبو سجاد عنده فلوس

Abu Sajjad 'indahu fulus

Abu Sajjad has money

بس يسوي روحه مفلس

Bas yisawwi ruhahu muflis

But he pretends to be broke

يحولوله من بره

Yihawwilulu min barra

They transfer to him from outside

والفلوس عنده تتكدس

Wal fulus 'indahu tatakaddas

And the money piles up with him
