In Poem 22 of Chapter 46 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet addresses the morning, personifying it as an intrusive and envious observer. The morning's "laugh without a mouth" (خنده زدی بی دهنی) serves as a classic Persian literary metaphor for the breaking of dawn and the sudden spreading of light across the sky.

Furthermore, the poet employs a clever wordplay by referencing the "false dawn" (Subh-e Kazib, صبح کاذب) through the word "false" (کاذب). The speaker suggests that the morning's breath is deceptive and transactional, contrasting the transient, treacherous nature of the dawn with the genuine and intimate delight of the lovers.
