ओशो अपने हाथों से, पिला रहे प्रभु का प्याला
oosho apane haathon se, pila rahe prabhu ka pyaala
रंग-बिरंगी बगिया जैसी, चहक रही यह मधुशाला
rang-birangee bagiya jaisee, chahak rahee yah madhushaala
रह न सकेगा आज पिये बिन, रिंद कोई भी मतवाला
rah na sakega aaj piye bin, rind koee bhee matavaala
गिरना नहीं सम्भलना पग-पग, सिखा रही है मधुशाला
girana nahin sambhalana pag-pag, sikha rahee hai madhushaala
हरि-सुमिरन की मीठी मदिरा, होश यहां का है प्याला
hari-sumiran kee meethee madira, hosh yahaan ka hai pyaala
दिव्य लोक में पहुँचाती, इक घूंट समाधि की हाला
divy lok mein pahunchaatee, ik ghoont samaadhi kee haala
ओशो खुद साकी बन कर, पिला रहे नित प्रभु-हाला
osho khud saakee ban kar, pila rahe nit prabhu-haala
छलक रही है सुरभित मदिरा, बुला रही है मधुशाला
chhalak rahee hai surabhit madira, bula rahee hai madhushaala
With his own hands Osho is pouring the cup of the divine; like a many-coloured garden, this tavern is alive with song.
No reveller drunk with joy can stay without drinking today; this tavern teaches us not to fall but to keep our balance at every step.
The sweet wine is the remembrance of the divine, and awareness is the cup here; one sip of the wine of samadhi carries you to the heavenly world.
Osho himself has become the cup-bearer, pouring the wine of the divine every day; the fragrant wine is brimming over, and the tavern is calling.
As in Sufi poetry, the wine and the tavern (madhushala) stand for divine intoxication: the drink is remembrance and awareness.
