Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:

 

268. samayEShvapadhishya jaithayAthrAmviviDhAntha:puravAgurAvyathItha:

niyatham maNipAdhukE! BhavathyA ramathE varmani rangasArvaBhOuma:

 

Oh Manipaaduka! The Lord has to engage on victory-ride many times

appropriately. On the pretext of such a need to go out, He crosses

the

cages of the harem, so as to enjoy Your company privately. This is

certain.

Special Notes by V.Satakopan(V.S):

**********************************

 

(1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh MaNi PaadhukE!

The Lord of Srirangam makes an excuse that He is leaving

for keeping various appointments and gets away from His

the inner chambers of His consorts. He unites with

You and goes on various jaunts to have the pleasure of

your company .He escapes like a fish jumping out of the net

to gain freedom of the road so that He can enjoy Your

companionship on the road . This is for sure !

 

(2) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PadhukE ! PerumAL

has the desire to play with You. MahA lakshmi and other

consorts are against Him leaving their chambers. Your Lord

makes an excuse that an asuran is causing lot of trouble

to the world and He has to attend to His duties of protecting

His bhakthAs . On the way , He enjoys the play with You.

 

(3) Sriranga Saarvabhouman makes up an excuse

that He has to go on a martial expedition to

destroy a trouble-causing asuran ( jaithra yAthrAm

upadisya ) and escapes His consort's company in

the inner chambers to go on the road to enjoy You

on the way ( antha:pura vaagurA vyathItha: varthmani

bhavathyA ramathE ). This is for sure (niyatham)..V.S
