SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,
Translation of Paaduka Sahasram by U.Ve. Sri V.N. Vedanta Desikan
Swamin: 

72. jagathAmaBhirakshaNE trayANAmaDhikAram maNipAdhukE! vahanthyO:
yuvayO:parikarmakOtilagnam charaNadhvandhvamavaImi rangaBharthu: 

Oh Paaduka! For You invested with the honour of presiding over the 
protection of all three worlds, the Lord's feet are verily a 
head-ornament, a crown so to say!

Namo Narayana,
Adiyen, SriMuralidhara Dasan

NOTES BY V.SADAGOPAN(V.S)
************************* 

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh Gem-studded paadhukhE ! 
Since You protect the Lord's feet, which in turn protects 
the world, the Lord's feet appear more like the decorations
for You .Thus , the Lord's feet beome classified in the category
of adorning jewelery for You .

2) Srimadh Andavan anubhavam : PerumAL Thiruvadi is 
the Crown for the Paadhukhai . 

3) Swami Desikan states that the Paadhukhai of 
Sri RanganAthA is the queen of the three worlds
and the Lord's holy feet are the Crown for that 
queen .Swami gently reminds us that the crown is 
not worn by anyone except the most exalted . Swami
classifies the Lord's sacred feet as "Parikarma kODilagnam "
or of the category of jewelery .... V.S
