पीले has two meanings: First, the plural form of yellow, an adjective, as in "यह फूल पीले हैं" meaning “these flowers are yellow”.
The second is a very informal singular imperative of पीना (to drink), optionally used with the pronoun तू, a very informal counterpart of तुम.
One can decipher the meaning from the context
चाय पीले चाय पी लो चाय पीलीजिए (singular/plural) All of the three are for imperative use and they all mean ‘drink tea!’. Formality and politeness increases from 1 to 3.
