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

 

308. niDhimiva nirapAyam thvAmanAdhruthya mOhA-

dhahamiva mama dOSham BhAvayan kshudhramarTham

mayi sathi karuNAyA: pUrNapAthrE thvayA kim

paramupagamanIya: pAdhukE! ranganAtha:

 

Oh Paaduka! Will it be proper for you to take the Lord to any one

else, when I am here? Yes, I have disregarded You, You, who must prove

a great flawless treasure for me. MY mind wandered behind vulgar

rewards like artha, kama, aishwarya, etc. The Lord too might cogitate

on my deficiency as I am myself doing. But then it itself makes me the

perfect recipient for the Lord's Grace. Who else needs His grace more?

None indeed! Hence, may you be pleased to enable me to receive the

Lord in His transit to my home?

 

Namo Narayana,
