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

197. vipROShithE raGhupathOu BhavathI yaThArham
mAnyE padhE sThithimathI manuvamshajAnAm 
AtmanyaTharvanipuNai: prahithaI: prajAnAm
aShrUNyapAsyadhaBhiShekajalapravAhaI:

Oh Paaduka! With Rama in the forest, You had been seated, 
as it well befitted You, on the Manu-family's throne, 
highly respecatable and when You were honoured 
with ablutions by masters of Atharva Veda, 
the streams of water flowing out removed 
the tears of grief of the people of the land.

Namo Narayana,
SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

(1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam : Oh PaadhukE !
When RaamA renounced the kingdom and left for 
the forest , the eyes of the citizens of AyOdhyA 
were filled with a steady stream of tears ; those 
tears were salty and inauspicious.When You bathed 
in the holy waters during Your coronation , these waters 
collected at the high plateau of the throne and flowed
downwards. These sacred waters helped the citizens 
to cleanse their eyes and stop the flow of the uncontrollable
stream of their inauspicious tears. The waters used for Your 
coronation were sanctified by Sages like AtharvA and others 
and are known for curing different kinds of mental and 
physical illnesses through the power of their tapas.

(2) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: Just as Sages like VasishtA 
skilled in the recitation of the powerful manthrams of
Atharva Vedam wiped away the tears of the citizens
of Kosala dEsam throught the consecrated waters used for
the coronation bath of the PaadukAs ,the presence of 
SadAchAryAs in our midst removes the sorrow arising
from the Lord not being with us to speak.

(3) Swamy states : " Atharva nipuNai: prahithai:
abhishEka jala pravAhai: prajAnAm asrUNi apAsyath"
( The copious waters consecrated by the experts in
Atharva Vedam like Sage VasishtA removed the inauspicious
tears of sorrow of the citizens resulting from their
separation from their Lord )...V.S
