رُونَق (rownaq)

  1. 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.
  2. boom, heyday, flourishing
    رونق بازارrownaq-e bâzârmarket boom
