In this shloka, Vedanta Desikan prays to Nammazhvar to grant himthe sweetness of his pasurams so that he too can write shlokaswith the same sweetness. Madhurakavi Azhvar too had said "aNNikkum amudhURum en nAvukkE". Nammazhvar is famous for wearingthe garland made of Vakula flowers - he is known as 'Vakulabarana".Swami Desikan is asking for the honey like sweetness of those flowers to be in his speech. Nammazhvar's divine feet are the refuge of Madhurakavi Azhvar -"mEvinEn avan ponnadi meymmaiyE" is Madhurakavi Azhvar's words.The Lord's divine feet are known as Shathari - which is the namefor Shathakopa. Nammazhvar's divine feet are known as Madhurakavi.
