You can use data- attributes:

<a class="customLink" href="your/url" data-text="yourText"><img src=".." alt=".." /></a>

and send the url with the text from the data-text attribute:

$(document).on('click', '.customLink', function(e) {
   e.preventDefault();
   var that = $(this);
   var url = that.attr('href');
   var text = that.attr('data-text');
   // Continue here ...
})
