Rafi Sahaab's song on when Friends turn into Foes: Dosto.n Me.n Koee Baat Chal Jaatee Hai...
Roman Transliteration/English Translation of the original Urdu/Hindi Lyrics:
dil kee gehraaeeyo.n tak, nazar jaatee hai,
TILL THE DEPTHS OF THE HEART GOES THE SIGHT,
teer ban kar jigar me.n, utar jaatee hai
LIKE AN ARROW IT SINKS DOWN IN THE HEART.
dosto.n me.n, koee baat, chal jaatee hai,
WHEN SOME MISUNDERSTANDING SETS IN AMONG FRIENDS,
dosto.n me.n, koee baat chal jaatee hai,
WHEN SOME MISUNDERSTANDING SETS IN AMONG FRIENDS,
dostee dushmanee me.n, badal jaatee hai,
FRIENDSHIP TURNS INTO ENMITY,
dosto.n me.n, koee baat chal jaatee hai,
WHEN SOME MISUNDERSTANDING SETS IN AMONG FRIENDS,
dosto.n me.n, koee baat chal jaatee hai...
WHEN SOME MISUNDERSTANDING SETS IN AMONG FRIENDS,
dostee dushmanee me.n badal, jaatee hai,
FRIENDSHIP TURNS INTO ENMITY,
dosto.n me.n, koee baat chal jaatee hai,
WHEN SOME MISUNDERSTANDING SETS IN AMONG FRIENDS,
dosto.n me.n, koee baat chal jaatee hai...
WHEN SOME MISUNDERSTANDING SETS IN AMONG FRIENDS...

FIRE GETS EXTINGUISHED, THE THING GETS BURNT,
aag bujh jaatee hai, cheez jal jaatee hai,
FIRE GETS EXTINGUISHED, THE THING GETS BURNT,

kyaa huwaa, gar shikaayat kaa mauqaa diyaa,
WHAT MATTERS IF A CHANCE WAS GIVEN FOR THE COMPLAINT,
kyaa huwaa gar shikaayat kaa, mauqaa diyaa,
WHAT MATTERS IF A CHANCE WAS GIVEN FOR THE COMPLAINT?
sab ne achchhaa kiyaa, hamm ko dhokaa diyaa,
EVERYONE DID FINE; THEY DECEIVED ME,
hamm ko dhokaa diyaa,
THEY DECEIVED ME...

Reveal not every secret you have to a friend, for how can you tell but that friend may hereafter become an enemy. And bring not all mischief you are able to upon an enemy, for he may one day become your friend.
Saadi – Persian poet (c.e. 1184-1291)
