अकर्तृकमरङ्गं च गगने चित्रमुत्थितम् ।
अद्रष्टृकं चानुभवमनिद्रं स्वप्नदर्शनम् ॥ ३ ॥

akartṛkamaraṅgaṃ ca gagane citramutthitam |
adraṣṭṛkaṃ cānubhavamanidraṃ svapnadarśanam || 3 ||

You see the tints of various hues painting the vacuous sky, without any paint (colouring substance), or their cause (the painter). This is but a conception of the mind without its visual perception, and like the vision in a dream of one, who is not in a state of sound sleep.
