Strophe 1 Madalasa Upadesha

शुद्धोसि बुद्धोसि निरँजनोऽसि

सँसारमाया परिवर्जितोऽसि

सँसारस्वप्नँ त्यज मोहनिद्राँ

मँदालसोल्लपमुवाच पुत्रम्।

śuddhosi buddhosi niraɱjano'si

saɱsāramāyā parivarjito'si

saɱsārasvapnaɱ tyaja mohanidrāɱ

maɱdālasollapamuvāca putram|

Madalasa says to her crying son: "You are pure, Enlightened, and spotless. Leave the illusion of the world and wake up from this deep slumber of delusion."

Strophe 2 Madalasa Upadesha

शुद्धोऽसि रे तात न तेऽस्ति नाम

कृतँ हि तत्कल्पनयाधुनैव।

पच्चात्मकँ देहँ इदँ न तेऽस्ति

नैवास्य त्वँ रोदिषि कस्य हेतो॥

śuddho'si re tāta na te'sti nāma

kṛtaɱ hi tatkalpanayādhunaiva|

paccātmakaɱ dehaɱ idaɱ na te'sti

naivāsya tvaɱ rodiṣi kasya heto||

shuddho'si re tata na te'sti nama

kritam hi tatkalpanayadhunaiva|

pachchatmakam deham idam na te'sti

naivasya tvam rodishi kasya heto||

My Child, you are Ever Pure! You do not have a name. A name is only an imaginary superimposition on you. This body made of five elements is not you nor do you belong to it. This being so, what can be a reason for your crying ?

Strophe 3 Madalasa Upadesha

न वै भवान् रोदिति विक्ष्वजन्मा

शब्दोयमायाध्य महीश सूनूम्।

विकल्पयमानो विविधैर्गुणैस्ते

गुणाश्च भौताः सकलेन्दियेषु॥

na vai bhavān roditi vikṣvajanmā

śabdoyamāyādhya mahīśa sūnūm|

vikalpayamāno vividhairguṇaiste

guṇāśca bhautāḥ sakalendiyeṣu||

na vai bhavan roditi vikshvajanma

shabdoyamayadhya mahisha sunum|

vikalpayamano vividhairgunaiste

gunascha bhautah sakalendiyeshu||

The essence of the universe does not cry in reality. All is a maya of words, oh Prince! Please understand this. The various qualities you seem to have are are just your imaginations, they belong to the elements that make the senses (and have nothing to do with you).

Strophe 4 Madalasa Upadesha

भूतनि भूतैः परिदुर्बलानि

वृद्धिँ समायाति यथेह पुँसः।

अन्नाम्बुपानादिभिरेव तस्मात्

न तेस्ति वृद्धिर् न च तेस्ति हानिः॥

bhūtani bhūtaiḥ paridurbalāni

vṛddhiɱ samāyāti yatheha puɱsaḥ|

annāmbupānādibhireva tasmāt

na testi vṛddhir na ca testi hāniḥ||

bhutani bhutaih paridurbalani

vriddhim samayati yatheha pumsah|

annambupanadibhireva tasmat

na testi vriddhir na cha testi hanih||

The Elements [that make this body] grow with accumulation of more elements or reduce in size if some elements are taken away. This is what is seen in a body's growing in size or becoming lean depending upon the consumption of food, water etc. You do not have growth or decay.

Strophe 5 Madalasa Upadesha

त्वम् कँचुके शीर्यमाणे निजोस्मिन्

तस्मिन् देहे मूढताँ मा व्रजेथाः।

शुभाशुभौः कर्मभिर्देहमेतत्

मृदादिभिः कँचुकस्ते पिनद्धः॥

tvam kaɱcuke śīryamāṇe nijosmin

tasmin dehe mūḍhatāɱ mā vrajethāḥ|

śubhāśubhauḥ karmabhirdehametat

mṛdādibhiḥ kaɱcukaste pinaddhaḥ||

tvam kamchuke shiryamane nijosmin

tasmin dehe mudhatam ma vrajethah|

shubhashubhauh karmabhirdehametat

mridadibhih kamchukaste pinaddhah||

You are in the body which is like a jacket that gets worn out day by day. Do not have the wrong notion that you are the body. This body is like a jacket that you are tied to, for the frutification of the good and bad karmas.

Strophe 6 Madalasa Upadesha

तातेति किँचित् तनयेति किँचित्

अँबेति किँचिद्धयितेति किँचित्।

ममेति किँचित् न ममेति किँचित्

त्वम् भूतसँघँ बहु म नयेथाः॥

tāteti kiɱcit tanayeti kiɱcit

aɱbeti kiɱciddhayiteti kiɱcit|

mameti kiɱcit na mameti kiɱcit

tvam bhūtasaɱghaɱ bahu ma nayethāḥ||

tateti kimchit tanayeti kimchit

ambeti kimchiddhayiteti kimchit|

mameti kimchit na mameti kimchit

tvam bhutasamgham bahu ma nayethah||

Some may refer to you are Father and some others may refer to you a Son or some may refer to you as mother and some one else may refer to you as wife. some say "you are mine" and some others say "you are not mine" These are all references to this "Combination of Physical Elements", Do not identify with them.

Strophe 7 Madalasa Upadesha

सुखानि दुःखोपशमाय भोगान्

सुखाय जानाति विमूढचेताः।

तान्येव दुःखानि पुनः सुखानि

जानाति विद्धनविमूढचेताः॥

sukhāni duḥkhopaśamāya bhogān

sukhāya jānāti vimūḍhacetāḥ|

tānyeva duḥkhāni punaḥ sukhāni

jānāti viddhanavimūḍhacetāḥ||

sukhani duhkhopashamaya bhogan

sukhaya janati vimudhachetah|

tanyeva duhkhani punah sukhani

janati viddhanavimudhachetah||

The deluded look at objects of enjoyments as giving happiness by removing the unhappiness. The wise clearly see that the same object which gives happiness now will become a source of unhappiness.

Strophe 8 Madalasa Upadesha

यानँ चित्तौ तत्र गतश्च देहो

देहोपि चान्यः पुरुषो निविष्ठः।

ममत्वमुरोया न यथ तथास्मिन्

देहेति मात्रँ बत मूढरौष।

yānaɱ cittau tatra gataśca deho

dehopi cānyaḥ puruṣo niviṣṭhaḥ|

mamatvamuroyā na yatha tathāsmin

deheti mātraɱ bata mūḍharauṣa|

yanam chittau tatra gatascha deho

dehopi chanyah purusho nivishthah|

mamatvamuroya na yatha tathasmin

deheti matram bata mudharausha|

The vehicle that moves on the ground is different from the person in it similarly this body is also different from the person who is inside! The owner of the body is different from the body! Ah how foolish it is to think I am the body!
