Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:
312. satyAllOkAth sakalamahithAth sThAnathO vA raGhUNAm
shanghE mAtha: samaDhikaguNam saIkatham sahyajAyA:
pUrvam pUrvam chariparichitham pAdhukE! yath thyajanthyA
nIthAm nAthasthadhidhamitharannIyathE na thvayAsoU
Oh Mother Paaduka! I think that the Lord prefers, as the dearest one,
sand-banks on the Kaveri, to the Satyaloka (revered by all), and to
Ayodhya, the seat of the Raghu race. Because the Lord has thwarted His
previous residences and He has been brought by You to the river bed
here. And He will not be taken to any other place hereafter. (It is
here that He has inaugurated the sure Moksha path, by bringing up
Gadyatraya emphasizing prapatti technique).
Namo Narayana,
SriMuralidhara Dasan

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
(1) Abhinava Desika UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! You chose
Srirangam , the island on Cauveri,as the most desirable place compared
to Satya lokam(the world of Brahma) or AyOdhyA , which is the site of
Moksham to all of the animate and inanimate beings at the time of
RaamA's ascent to Sri Vaikuntam. You persuaded RanganAthA to halt at
Srirangam permanently because of its unquestioned superiority among
Moksha-conferring sites and stopped Him from continuing His journey to
LankA to fulfil the pledge given by RaamA to VibhishaNA . Srirangam
has now become the foremost site for realizing the blessings of
Moksham for those, who seek refuge at Your Lord's holy feet, which
You adorn. Thanks to Your intervention , RanganAthA is not going to
budge ever from Srirangam . We are indeed saved.
(2) Oh Mother PaadhukE ! " ThvayA asou RanganAtha: SahayajA's
saikatham neetha: " ( This RanganAthan has been brought to the island
made by the river CauvEri known as Srirangam ). PerumAL at Your
behest abandoned many places like Sathya Lokam , AyOdhyA and stays
permanently now at Srirangam ( Chira parichitham poorvam poorvam
thyajanthyA RanganAtha: ) since He has accepted that
Srirangam is superior to all the others ?V.S
