Dear Forum Users,

One of my friends wants a tattoo and wants to have it in English. The message would be something like 'when sisters unite/join forces, mountains turn to diamonds'.

Could anyone please give me grammatically correct, good-sounding suggestions like:

1. When sisters unite, mountains turn into/become diamonds.
2. ...

Thank you very much.

I don't find the idea of mountains turning into diamonds very natural at all. What picture is she trying to put into the minds of the reader?
 
I'll have to ask her ... -- will be back

Is it a translation? It doesn't sound natural to me.
