Typo:Please read *meets* above in place of *meet*.

I am also trying to translate the above sentence mentioned by you. I am not sure about the exact meaning of *musawaree* here but I guess it means painting or some other artistic work. I\'m trying to help you with the sentence on the basis of my interpretation of this word in the above sense:

You may fulfil your hobby of painting also.

I\'d be thankful if someone could correct me, if I have guessed it wrongly.
