Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

592. thvayaIva pAdhAvani! shONarathnaI: bAlAthapam nUnamudhIrayanthyA
padhmApathE: pAdhathalaprarUDam rEKhAmbhujam 
nithyamaBhUdhanidhram

Oh Paaduka! The Lord's Feet have lines of lotus also. It is a nice 
piece of imagination to reason out that this 
lotus remains blossomed, never closing itself up, only because of the 
mild sunshine that your ruby gems emit. 

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 592:

1) UthtamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! Your rubies serve as the 
morning sun to open the insignia of lotus on the holy feet of your 
Lord . The warmth of your rubies keeps however that lotus open 
always. ( The presence of lotus on the palms of one's foot indicate 
that the person has unlimited wealth . Swamy Desikan hints that the 
PaadhukAs confer this bhAgyam to the Lord through its rubies) .

2)SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The lotuses of the world blossom at
the sight of Sun in the morning; they close at sunset . The lotus on 
the palm of the foot of the Lord is always in a state of blossom 
thanks to the radiance of the rubies from the Paadhukais. 

3)The rubies on the Paadhukais act as the moring sun ( sONa-rathnai: 
bAlAtapam udhIrayanthyA Thvayaiva). There is a lotus in the form of 
rays ( PadmApathE: paadha tala prarUDam rEkAmbhujam ). That lotus 
never closes its petals . It is always in a state of blossom ( 
rEkAmbhujam nithyam anidhram abhUth).
