Peepers, eyes. Derived from the verb моргать (to blink). In Soviet criminal argot (Fenya) and subsequent street slang, it became a aggressive, menacing term for eyes, most famously used in the classic movie quote “I’ll gouge your peepers out!”
Я такая, за свое счастье пасть порву, моргалы выколю :)
I’m like that, for my happiness I’ll tear my mouth off, poke eyes out :)
