إذا كنت لا تدري وما ريت عالما

كأنّك تدري كنت بالجهل في عذر

If you do not know and have not seen the world

It's as if you know, being excused for ignorance

يعد لبيبا جاهل وهو مذعن

وليس عليما مذعن وهو لا يدري

A wise man considers an ignorant one learned if he's receptive

And not a learned one if he does not know yet is not receptive
