Hindi classics: What is the message in the poem "Madhushala" by Late Mr. Hariwansh Rai Bachchan?

Answer 1

I read it only once and got struck by.. "the passionate yearning of the soul for beauty ending only in frustration, the pathetic scarcity and transience of beauty in the world, the agony of disillusionment, the inevitability of death and a stoic acceptance of fatalism as the only armour for the soul."

Excerpts:
Call it not lava, though it flows red, like a tongue of flame.
Call it not the blistered heart, for it is only foaming wine.
Lost memories serve the wine, that intoxicates with pain.
If you find happiness in suffering, come to my tavern.

Life is short. How much love can I give and how much can I drink?
They say, "He departs," at the very moment that he is born.
While he is being welcomed, I have seen his farewell being prepared.
They started closing the shutters of the tavern, as soon as they were raised.

Weep over my corpse, if you can weep tears of wine.
Sigh dejectedly for me, if you are intoxicated and carefree.
Bear me on your shoulders, if you stumble drunkenly along.
Cremate me on that land, where there once was a tavern.

wine and the tavern or wine-house serve as the basic metaphors in the poem and symbolise the fillness and intoxication of life as well as its pain and frustration. Love, Beauty, Pain, Sorrow, Death --- all of these and more are woven into the rich texture of the poem.
