How ignorant is the father if he raises his son in luxury

ما أجهل الأب لو ربى ابنه ترفا

1. How ignorant is the father if he raises his son in luxury
And does not assign him to a teacher, thus keeping him in the dark

١. ما أجهل الأب لو ربَّى ابنه ترفاً
ولم يكله لأستاذ وأظلَمَهُ

2. Giving him whatever he desires when he threatens
To commit suicide, and fear forces him

٢. يعطيه ما يشتهي إذ قام ينذره
بالانتحار وكان الخوف أرغمه

3. He is like one who gives a sorcerer
His son's blood, without mercy for his child

٣. أراه أشبه من يعطي المشعوذ إذ
يجري دماء ابنه وهما ليرحمه
