अगर धूप बहु जनु अँधिआरी। उड़इ अबीर मनहुँ अरुनारी॥ मंदिर मनि समूह जनु तारा। नृप गृह कलस सो इंदु उदारा॥ ३ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

agara dhūpa bahu janu aṃdhiārī। uḍai abīra manahuṃ arunārī॥ mandira mani samūha janu tārā। nṛpa gṛha kalasa so indu udārā॥ 3 ॥

Meaning

The thick smoke of incense seems like darkness, and the flying red powder seems like a rosy glow. The clusters of jewels in the palaces seem like stars. The pitcher atop the royal house seems like a splendid moon.
