رونق

beauty, glamour, splendor
- c. 1260s, Jalāl ad-Dīn Mohammad Rūmī, translated by Reynold A. Nicholson, مثنوی معنوی [Masnavi-ye-Ma'navi], volume IV, verse 1734:
  رونق دنیا برآرد زو کساد، زانک هست از عالم کون و فساد
  rownaq-e donyâ bar-ârad z-u kasâd, z-ân ke hast az 'âlam-e kown o fasâd
  The splendour of the present life soon produces unsaleableness [i.e. becomes of no account], inasmuch as it belongs to the world of generation and corruption.
- c. 1585, عرفی شیرازی ('Orfi Shirazi), “Poem 56”, in قصیده‌ها:
  تو از ملک عراقی واژگون کن عادت پیشین، اگر خواهی که حسن رونق هندوستان بینی.
  to az molk-e 'erâqi vâžgun kon 'âdat-e pišin, agar xâhi ke hosn-e rownaq-e hendustân bini.
  You are from the Iraqi realm (Persian Iraq, not modern Iraq); turn your old ways upside-down, if you wish to see the beauty of the splendor of India.
boom, heyday, flourishing
― rownaq-e bâzâr ― market boom

― rownaq va rokud ― boom and bust
radiance, glow, luster
