Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

848. mukthAmayUKharuchirAm maNipAdharakshE!
     manjusvanAm maNiBhirAhithavarNavargAm
     manyE mukundhapadhapadhmaDhubrathInA-
     manyAmakruthrimagirAmaDhidhEvathAm thvAm

Oh Manipaaduka! With the white lustre of pearls, the sweet melody, 
the variety of colours generated, You find You are hovered round by 
female beetles. They could be regarded as Srutis, marked by 
effulgence, sweetness, array of alphabets etc. To Srutis, the Paaduka 
becomes another Presiding Deity (Saraswati being one, with white 
garment, sweet sound, etc).

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S) :
 
SlOkam 848
 
1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh Mani PaadharakshE !
You are beautiful with the white rays asociated with Your pearls.
You have a sweet sound , when You move. You have many hues
due to the different colored gems adorning You. With the combination
of all the above qualities , You remind me of a flock of bees circling
the lotus feet of the Lord. The bees are nothing but the empowering
principle behind the VedAs.
 
2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh MaNi PaadharakshE ! 
with Your resplendent white pearls , delightful naadham arising from 
Your movements and the multi-colored gems on You , You remind 
one of the bee hovering over the lotus flower . Just as the honey bee 
that never leaves the lotus flower , Oh PaadhukE , You never leave 
the side of Your Lord's sacred feet even for a moment. You resemble 
the adhishtAna dEvathai of all the VedAs (i-e) all the VedAs have 
taken their abode in You. Vandu/Vedam  is called DhvrEpam) since 
the name "Bramaram " for them has two "R"s .
  
3) Oh Gem-studded PaadharakshE ! You are beautiful with
the lustre of Your pearls ( MukthA mayukha ruchirAm ); 
You produce a beautiful naadham , when You move 
(ManjusvanAm) ; You have the assembly of colors from
black (ornyx) to red (PadhmarAgam ) on Your surface 
( MaNibhi: aahitha varNavargAm) . With all these features , 
You resemble a female honey bee at the lotus feet of
Your Lord ( ThvAm Mukundha Padha Padhma madhuvrathee) .
adiyEn also considers  You as the aadhaara dEvathai for
the apourushEya Vedams ( akruthrima girAm anyAm
adhi-dEvathAm manyE )....(V.S).
