    English equivalent

    United we stand, divided we fall.

    Vocabulary

    • zgoda — agreement, unity, harmony
    • budować — to build
    • niezgoda — discord, disagreement

    Grammar note

    Both clauses follow the same subject–verb pattern. 'Buduje' and 'rujnuje' are third-person singular present tense.
