2 Urdu couplets and shers with phenk

phenk(m): throw

Description of phenk: Phenk is a Hindi/Urdu noun derived from the verb phenkna , referring to the act of throwing or a throw itself. Unlike phenkna, which denotes the full action of hurling something, phenk captures the nominal essence of that motion. Differs from daal , as phenk implies greater force or distance. In Urdu poetry, it evokes dramatic gestures, like "phenk diya dil ko" .
