SrI:
SrImathE Ramanujaya namah:

Dearest all,

What Ramanuja expounded was understood and retained by
everyone of his disciples and their minds became
clearer with right jnAnam; Amudhanaar says: his poems
attain their greatness because of Ramanuja?s lotus
feet in his heart. 

uthippana vuththamar chinthaiyuL onnalar nenchamanchik
kothiththita maaRi nadappana koLLaivan kuRRamellaam
pathiththaven pun_kavip paavinam pooNtana
paavutholcheer
ethiththalai naathan iraamaa NnuchanRan iNaiyatiyE. 50

The greatness of the Lotus feet of Emperumaanaar- Sri
Ramanujacharya (who is the embodiment of all kalyANa
guNAs existing all over the world, who is the King,
Chief among saints) is: They (the Lotus feet) reside
in the hearts of Bhagawathas (who know that only
Emperumaan Sriman Narayanan is the means as well as
the end) like the rising bright sun; They walk in the
hearts of those other non vedic religious people
giving them fearsome spine chilling shivers from the
roars of YathirAjar's Veda based arguments; They (the
Lotus feet) adorn me as an ornament. This grace is
even on this lowly self, the personification of all
sins and is looked down by everyone. How great are The
Lotus Feet of Ramanauja! 

Paravu- well manifested everywhere
Tholseer yathitthalainAthan- King of Yathis who has
the most auspicious attributes [kalyANa guNAs] the
ancient ones- prevailing in Krutha yuga et al; 
Iraamausanthan iNai aDi- the Lotus Feet of Ramanuja; 
Utthamar chithaiyuL- in the minds of BhAgawathaas
Udhippana- kept staying [growing]
Onnalar nenjam- the minds of enemies
Anji kodhitthida- burn with fear; 
maaRi nadappana- [Those lotus feet] walk in the hearts
[of the other non-vedic religious people] victoriously
[for having conquered them]; 
koLLai van kuRRam ellaam padhittha- innumerable
[countless] cruel sins [dhoshams] have accrued and
stayed]
en- [in] this lowliest self
pul kavi paa inam pooNdana- rambling in these verses
have also become grand ones [due to being associated
with the Lotus feel of Ramanuja] 

Yathitthalai nAThan- The king of ascetics; Sanyaasis
who have thridhandam; sikhA; upaveedham like
Yamunacharya. Sri Ramanuja is the king among SUCH
ascetics. Also the sanyaasi disciples who were there
used to walk with Ramanuja. Thus he was the king among
ascetics. 

EmperumAnAr?s lotus feet are grander than even those
of the Lord. Those who do not pay respects to
BhAGawathAs and the vedic religion [Sri Ramanuja
sampradaya] are also conquered by these lotus feet by
walking victoriously in their hearts. They shiver with
fear due to the unambiguity of the sampradayam and the
success of the same to win over them. Thus
swamathasthApanam was done. Paramatha nirasanam was
carried out.  

It is for SaadhurakshaNam, and this asAdhu sikhaNam..
Thus all words in praise of EmperumAn are equally
applicable to my verses- says Amudhanaar. These verses
are even better as they carry the name Ramanua and
also these verses add to the greatness as they talk
about adiyaar?s adiyaar [His servants? servant]. 

They are hence equal to Upanishads as the bhAGawathAs
glorify them. Ramanauja himself has blessed them as
they refer to him as the devotee of Sriman Narayanan;
the connoisseur of AzhwAr Sri sookthis and ardent
rasika and bhatha of AzhwArs; AchAryas. 

Thus the verses sung by even this lowliest self- who
is the personification of all paapams ? are great
because of reference to Ramanuja and His glories.
