SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest Srivaishnavas,

The reason for which Alavandhar described the Lord so
exhaustively along with PiraaTTi, His love for Her,
Her compassion, Their paraphrenelia, and the greatest
NityasUris, - now he comes out why? 

bhavanthamEvAnu charan nirantharam
prasaantha nissEsha manOraThAnthara: 
kadha(S)aham aikAnthika nithya kimkara:
praharshayishyaami sanaatha jeevitha: [46] 

when will I ever [be blessed to] crushing all other
desires in my mind, with the only object in mind for
serving at Your Feet alone as Your humble servant;
uninterruptedly worship You and You alone and live
with You eternally and delight You forever.. 

waiting on You alone; with all other worldly desires
crushed from my mind with Your blessings; when will be
ever be blessed to be Your eternal dAsda bhUthan,
sEsha bhUthan ? Your servant; for You and You alone;
exhilarate You and delight You forever and ever and
live with You forever as my Lord.. 

whatever discrimination powers that You blessed me
with; whatever detachment I develop; the mind runs
amuck after worldly pleasures as long as I am in this
world; Even if I detach the mind myself from one thing
with vairAgyam, it goes and switches onto another. All
such desires in my mind should vanish; get destroyed;
In order to get the desires to do service at Your
Feet, naturally the desires after the worldly objects
need to go away. The sleep, the eating, and others
would pursue me and keep me away from You and serving
You; Please crush them. All those vaasanas do need to
be gotten rid of from the roots; Then only can my mind
think of You- Sriya: Pathi uninterruptedly.. Then only
can I become kinkaran? asking You what shall and How
shall I serve You? Kim karOmi? Kim karOmi and then
will i become kainakaryaparan. That status would then
persist and will never ever go away as You would have
already blessed me with eternal association and being
with You at Your Feet then. 

When I become such a kinkaran, then I would go and
follow You wherever You go like iLayaperumAL
(Lakshaman) and serve You uninterruptedly. Then,
immediately my life would like that of a chaste wife
who would be with the husband at all times serving
Him. To make myself so in such a state, is not for me
and for self interest. It is for Your pleasure and
delight. I am Your humble servant at all times and it
is my only duty to serve You and for Your pleasure.
You are my master ? sEshi and it is the natural duty
of myself being your eternal sEshan [servant]. 

For me- who is the sEshan- what else is required other
than Your delight and pleasure? Thus Your enjoyment
alone is my target and objective. But how can I do
that here with my mind not being steady due to karma
vasanaas? and my buddhi stumbles and falls over the
material and worldly objects. There could be many days
passing by without serving You at all; That would be
against my essential nature of being your eternal
servant and hence I would be failing in my duty
thereby. Hence, PLEASE bless me the state of being
your eternal servant and performing uninterrupted
service NOW ? right now and it would be great. Though
I am stamped as being your servant eternally as a
jeevan- whose essential nature is to be Your servant
and is? , the day has not yet come for serving You so
due to my karma.. and am waiting for that day? Is it
today? When is it?- asks Alavandhaar. Though I have
performed Saranagathi (in 22nd verse), my state is
like the wife who has not yet gone to husband?s place
to serve him.. when is it? 

Alavandhaar ThiruvaDigaLE SaraNam

Namo Narayana
dAsan
