English Translation

तात O dear child, लौकायतिकान् thinking of this world only, those atheists, ब्राह्मणान् brahmins, न सेवसे कच्चित् I hope you are not keeping company, पण्डितमानिनः fancying them as learned, बालाः foolish, एते these people, अनर्थकुशलाः हि adept in bringing disaster indeed.

English Commentary

Dear brother, I hope you do not serve those brahmins who are atheists, who foolishly think of this world alone and fancy themselves as learned. They only bring disasters.
