Well, it's pretty close... It does essentially translate into "Good, that's enough, now try harder."
The funny part is the LITERAL translation. Do you know the American phrase to "buckle down" and work harder? This Swahili phrase literally translates as "pull up your socks" and means to work harder. Just thought you might be interested in that one! :)

Sawa basi soma kwa bidii means
OK, that's enough! Study hard!
Sawa = OK, all right.
basi = that's enough
soma = study, read
kwa = with
bidii = effort, struggle
kwa bidii = hard
Hope that helps!
