Still reading Shorash Kashmiris ‘Uss Bazar main’.

mentioning Lucknow’s Tawaif, he said: falan Tawaif to Pani pe lakeer khench leti thi aur hawa main girah laga leti thi.

What does this mean? Is it metaphorical or real like Tansen could light diye by singing deepak and bring rain buy singing Malhaar.
