Tapka(m): drip, drop
Description of Tapka: Tapka is an Urdu word meaning a drop or drip, often referring to a small falling droplet of liquid like water or sweat.

1 / 1: Tapka
jab aankh hi se na Tapka to
phir lahoo kya hai
that which courses through veins
i don't much care for
if it doesn't drip from the eyes
how can it be blood?
