Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

697. valamaThanamaNInAm DhAmaBhisthAvakAnAm
maDhuripupadharakshE! vAsaraIravyapEthA
aBhisaraNaparANAm vallavInAm thadhAsIth
shamithaguruBhayArthi: sharvarI kAchidhanyA

Oh Paaduka of the Lord! You wrought a night in broad day time, by 
using the dark radiance of the sapphires, so as to enable the love-
mad gopi to reach Krishna, unknown to the elders.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 697

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh Paadhukais of MadhusudanA!
Duirng the time of Your Lord's incarnation as KrishNa , You helped 
the maiden of Brindhavanam to travel under the cover of night to 
have trysts with KrishNa. The dark blue rays of Your sapphires 
hid the surrounding day and made it look like the darkish night so 
that the maiden could reach KrishNa's residence without being 
detected by their elders even during day time.

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! The lustre from 
Your sapphires make the bright day take on the appearance of
night. That transformation from day into night makes it easy 
for the Gopa sthrees to visit KrishNa during " the day time" 
without being detected by their in laws and kin folks. 

3)Oh Madhuripu PaadharakshE! Your sapphires send out their
bluish black rays from their sapphires , which hide the Sun
during the day time and make it look like the night has set in 
(TaavakAnAm valamaTana maNeenAm dhAmabhi: vaasarai:
avyapEthA anyA kaachith sarvaree aaseeth). This is helpful 
to the Gopis to escape from their households to run to 
KrishNa's side to have a tryst (abhisAra NaayakIs). 
Their fear about detection by their elders during such
acts is banished thanks to the help of the sapphire rays 
( abhisaraNaparANAm vallaveenAm samitha Guru bhaya 
aarthi: )..(V.S)
