Water and shade, proving unwholesome will bring you pain Acts of untrustworthy friends will bring you bane Dread not the foes, who as swords drawn, may appear But for friendship of foes, who seem like kinsmen, you fear!
Beware of the hidden hate and guard thy life In troublous times, it will wound deeper than potter`s knife If secret enmities arise, that makes the mind pervert Then even kin, unkind will work thee grievous hurt!
Amid one`s relatives if hidden hate arise It will impose, hurt even in deadly wise If discord find with those with whom you dwelt before It is ever hard to keep destruction from the door!
As casket and its cover live one in other always No union will be in the house where concealed hate has sways As like gold, with which the containing file is worn away Strength of house dwellers where hate is concealed has sway!
Though slight as shred of sesame seed it be Destruction lurks in hidden enmity Domestic life with those who don`t agree Is like dwelling in a shed with snake for company!
