donon ne baDhaai raunaq-e-husn — Wahshat Raza Ali Kalkatvi

zaalim ki to aadat hai sataataa hi rahegaa
apni bhi tabiat hai bahalti hi rahegi

kis tarah husn-e-zabaan ki ho taraqqi 'vahshat'
main agar khidmat-e-urdu-e-muallaa na karun

abhi hote agar duniyaa mein 'daagh'-e-dehlavi zinda
to vo sab ko bataa dete hai 'vahshat' ki zabaan kaisi

qadrdaani ki kaifiyat maalum
aib kyaa hai agar hunar na huaa

dil ko ham kab tak bachaae rakhte har aaseb se
Thes aakhir lag gai shishe mein baal aa hi gayaa

thaa qafas kaa khayaal daaman-gir
uD sake ham na baal o par le kar
