Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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


678. vipulathamamahOBhirvIthadhOShAnuShangam
vilasadhuparinaIlyam dhEvi! viShNO: padham thath
pruThumarathakadhrushyAm prApya pAdhAvani! thvAm
prakatayathi samanthAth samprayOgam haridhBhi:

Oh Paaduka! (Vishnupada means both the Lord's Feet and the sky). The 
Lord's Feet by the dazzling radiance can cut off the sin-contact of 
their devotess. The blue hue of the Lord's body pervades the upper 
horizons. (The sky is vast-looking in daytime; the night-contact 
appears to contract it and make it look dark) 

The presence of emeralds with their green effulgence propagating in 
all directions too, establishes a contact with all space and all 
directions. (For the sky, too, dazzle of the green gem directs as it 
were, the green horses in all directions unlike the horses of the sun 
taking the prescribed path.)

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S) 

SlOkam 678

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! RanganAthA's
sacred feet known as VishNu paadhams have a supremely 
matchless lustre with a blue hue on its upper side.
The association of VishNu paadhams with the green rays
of Your emerald gems makes it possible for the lustre of
the paadhams to spread in all directions and establish 
their connections with all green (living) objects.
VishNu paadham also means aakAsam or the blue sky.

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: When the Lord wears 
the Paadhukais , the green hue of their emeralds
spreads in all directions.Even the sky takes on the green 
hue during the day. The inner meaning is that after
Swamy NammAzhwAr's compositions ,all poeple became 
devoted to the Lord.

3)Oh PaadhukE! The Lord's body has a dark bluish hue 
that is supremely blemishless (vipulathama mahObhi:
veetha dhOsha anushangam nailyam).That glorious feet of 
the Lord with its natural bluish hue gets united now with 
the green rays from Your emeralds as the Lord wears You
( Tath Nailyam VishNO: padham pruTu marataka dhrusyAm ThvAM 
prApya). What is the effect of this union (SamprayOgam)? 
All around , the green rays spread and make every thing look
green. Even the bluish sky transforms in to a dark greenish
color during the day time , which makes one wonder whether 
the night has set (ahObhi: vipulatamam dhOshA Haridhbi:)..(V.S).
