doggish hair

The hair a newborn child is born with, before it is cut for the first time.

Anı [medalonnu] içinde meni jüregimi, sizge da bek bağalı atağıznı askerge aşırğanda alınŋan suratçığı bla Soltannı itlik çaçı bardı. Bügün men munu seni [kelinni] boyunuŋa tağama.Inside it [the medallion] is my heart, the little photograph taken when we saw your father — so dear to you too — off to the army, and Soltan's baby hair. Today I am hanging this on your [the bride's] neck.
