OH! Slightly off-topic, but could you perhaps explain the term 'Mahrokh'? (I don't remember the equivalent english term-- moon? Moon-face?) Is it a compliment or an insult?
in middle eastern or more specifically arabic poetry very dark/black eyes are typically considered to be the most beautiful and dark black hair too but that's all generalizations i guess

i have never heard that word before, i looked it up in arabic and as i had expected, it doesn't exist. i had a bunch of persian website pop up tho
