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

 

729. EkAmEka: kila niravishathpAdhukE! dvArakAyAm

krIdAyOgI kruthabahuthanu: ShOdashasthrIsahasrE

shuDdhE dhEvi! thvadhupanihithE bimbithO rathnajAlE

BhunkthE nithyam sa Khalu BhavathIm BhUmikAnAm sahasraI:

 

Oh Paaduka Devi! Krishna addicted to sport enjoyed a sixteen thousand

damsels at Dwaraka; He taking different forms to please each one. But

now He repeats it in a slightly different way; He enjoys You all

through, He taking thousands of forms in the form of images of

Himself on the numerous gems on You, but You the one on the opposite

side!

 

Namo Narayana,

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

 

SlOkam 729

 

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! The playful Krishna

took individual forms to enjoy the company of His sixteen thousand

wives at DwarakA each night. At the house of all of His sixteen

thousand wives , You were there. Out of His great love for You ,

He was always with You through His images reflected on Your

blemishless jewels. This way , He enjoys Your company in an

uninterrupted manner always.

 

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam:Oh PaadhukE! Just as in

KrishNAvathAram ,

the Lord enjoys You in a multifold manner through His many reflections

on Your many gems.

 

3)At DhwAraka , the Lord interested in srungAra sports

(KreeDA-yOgi) took on many bodies through a process of

mulitplication (DhwArakAyAm Bhautanussan krutha:) to enjoy

His 16,000 wives one by one ( Bahu-tanussann shODasa SthreesahasrE

yEkAm yEka: niravisath kila). That sportive KrishNan

sees His many forms reflected on the bright gems

enmeshed on You ( Sa: SuddhE thvadhupanihithE rathnajAlE

BhimBhithassann )and thus enjoys You always by taking on

those many forms ( Sa: Tava RathnajAlE BhimBhithassann

bhUmikAnAm sahasrai: bhavatheem nithyam bunkthE khalu)..(V.S).
