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

 

 

628. avaImi rangEshvarapAdharakshE! mukthAPhalAni thvayi nisthulAni

thEnaIva kalpAntharakANAmupathAni bIjAni jagadhviDhAthrA

 

Oh Paaduka! The globular pearls on You, I surmise are the seeds that

Lord Ranganatha, the World-Creator has sown, for later on

materializing into stars in future ages, kalpas, etc.

 

Namo Narayana,

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

 

SlOkam 628

 

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh RanganAtha PaadhukE!

I consider Your pearls as the seedlings for the growth of

the future generation of stars , which have been planted

in You by the Lord Himself.

 

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam:Oh PadhukE! When one looks at

the pearls enmeshed on Your surface ,it is like the seedlings

planted by the Lord for the occasion of the next kalpam .

The inner meaning is that just as the twinkling distant

star and its beauty is enjoyed by people far away from

the stars, even for common folk , the devotional fervor of

Swamy NammAzhwAr's paasurams become abundantly evident.

 

3) The pearls on the Paadhukai are matchless ( Thvayi

nisthulAni mukthAphalAni).They are like the seeds sown for

the next Kalpam by Lord of Rangam( TEnaiva upthAni kalpAnthara

tArakANAm bhIjAni avaimi)..(V.S).
