तुझ से उल्फ़त निबाहता हूँ मैं बा-वफ़ा हूँ कि बेवफ़ा कुछ हूँ
— Bahadur Shah Zafar
Meaning

I continue to fulfill my love with you, whether that makes me faithful, unfaithful, or something in between.

Explanation

In this beautifully honest couplet, the speaker looks at their love without wearing the mask of an idealized, flawless partner. Rather than claiming absolute loyalty or beating their chest in guilt, they simply acknowledge that they are continuing to carry the weight and tenderness of the relationship. It speaks to that profoundly human space where we cannot easily label ourselves as faithful or faithless, yet our devotion keeps moving forward anyway.
