The bagh naka is a claw-like weapon from India designed to fit over the knuckles or be concealed under and against the palm. It consists of four or five curved blades affixed to a crossbar or glove, and is designed to slash through skin and muscle. It is believed to have been inspired by the armament of big cats, and the term bagh naka itself means tiger’s claw in Hindi. (Source)

I had a lover, I don’t think I’ll risk another these days, and if I seem to be afraid to live the life that I have made in song, it’s just that I’ve been losing so long.
