Gulposh kabhi itraaye kahin maheke to nazar aa jaaye kahin
Sometimes a hidden flower flaunts itself,
If it lets off a fragrance then it comes into view
Taaviz banaake pehen usse, aayat ki tarah mil jaaye kahin
Wear it like a sacred amulet, it will be like a religous verse

Main rang roop ka saudaai
I am the barterer of color and beauty
