خسرو دهلوی - رحمه الله تعالی - در شعر متفنن است، قصیده و غزل و مثنوی را ورزیده و همه را به کمال رسانیده، تتبع خاقانی می کند، هرچند در قصیده به وی نرسیده اما غزل را از وی گذرانیده. غزلهای وی به واسطه معانی آشنا که ارباب عشق و محبت بحسب ذوق و وجدان خود آن را درمی یابند مقبول همه کس افتاده است خمسه نظامی را کسی به از وی جواب نکرده و ورای آن مثنویهای دیگر دارد همه مطبوع و مصنوع.

English translation

Khosrow Dehlavi — may God the Exalted have mercy on him — is versatile in poetry. He practiced the qasida, the ghazal, and the masnavi, and brought them all to perfection. He follows the manner of Khaqani; although in the qasida he did not reach him, in the ghazal he surpassed him. His ghazals, on account of the familiar meanings that the masters of love and affection grasp according to their own taste and intuition, have been accepted by everyone. No one has answered Nizami's Khamsa better than he, and beyond that he has other masnavis, all pleasing and skillfully wrought.
