I spent the entire night taking blessings and warding off evils from your face; you may ask your disheveled hair, which is right here as a witness.
The poet paints an intimately tender scene of spending the entire night completely captivated by the beloved, warding off every harm and showering them with silent devotion. As charming proof of this sleepless vigil, he playfully points to the beloved’s disheveled tresses, treating them as an eyewitness to the night’s intimacy. Those tousled locks become a gentle, undeniable evidence of tender closeness and loving caresses that words alone could never capture.
