WEIRD USB WIRE COLOR?

I WAS JUST WANNA MAKE MY OWN USB KEYBOARD LAMP 2 HELP ME SEE AND TYPE EVEN IN DARK (SO COOL , ROMANTIC AND MAKES ME FEEL CALM) WHILE NIGHT CHATING AND WEB SEARCHING.........BLA BLA BLA ...
ANYWAY. WHILE DOING MY IDEA I TRIED 2 FIGURE OUT WHICH WIRE FROM -THE FOUR WHICH I GET FROM THE USB CABEL- WOULD SUPLLY THE VOLTAGE 2 LIGHT UP MY LED(LAMP)
I COULDN'T FIND OUT AND WHEN I SEARCH THE WEB ...ALL SITES ARE TALKING ABOUT OTHER COLORS OTHER THAN I HAVE.
I HAVE FOUR WEIRD COLORS(YELLOW , BLUE , GRAY , VIOLET)
HELP ME 2 KNOW WHICH WIRES SHOULD LIGHT UP MY NEW LAMP

A digital multimeter with continuity tester would be good to have. An analog meter would work too.

The power wire is pin 1 on the far right, when looking at the flat square end of the cable with the inner solid piece on the bottom. Ground wire is the far left, pin 4.

With wire colors differing, the meter is your best bet.

Great pictures of usb pinouts:
