SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest all

After Nammazhwar anubhavams of Thiruvaymozhi [on
Thiruvenkatamudaiyaan], let us take up his other works
namely Tiruviruttham and Periya anthAthi. 

Today?s verse on ThiruvEnkatam from this wonderful
work is the 50th verse of Tiruviruttham
Let us continue to enjoy. 

oNNuthal maamai oLipaya
 vaamai, viraindhun^anthEr
naNNuthal vENdum valava!
 kadaakinRu, thEnn^avinRa
vaNmuthal naayagan nILmudi
 veNmuththa vaasigaiththaay
maNmudhal sErvuRRu, aruvisey
 yaan^iRkum maamalaikkE. 50

The naayakan comes back to see his beloved naayaki and
while coming, rushes the charioteer. He addresses as
below: 

Oh Sarathy! My dear charioteer! Please drive our
chariot quick.. and fast. The most beautiful faced my
beloved thalaivi is waiting and longing; before her
colour becomes pale and the ?pasalai: [languishing and
longing disease] conquers her, let us reach her and we
need to go there. Rush and drive fast. Where- are you
asking? The huge mountain ? Thirumalai.. That?s where
you need to drive to. There bees hum singing. Like the
pearl garland that adorns His Crown, the crystal clear
water stream flows down from this mountain in pure
white form. To such a great mountain, drive the
chariot? and quick. 

Inner meaning: 

AzhwAr ? who longs and languishes for uniting with the
Lord is suffering from the pangs of separation. The
Bhaagawathas realizing the same, rushes the AzhwAr and
addresses others to rush the AzhwAr to the Lord of
ThiruvEnkatam?  as the Lord is also longing to see
AzhwAr. 

In this verse, maamalai word meaning- the huge
mountain.. does not refer directly to ThiruvEnkatam?
However in the eighth verse of Thiruviruttham, thaN
maamalai vEnkatam says AzhwAr. Thus he refers to the
maamalai [huge mountain] to ThiruvEnkatam and that
alone.. and hence it is logical ?says the vyAkhyAthA
[the commentator] that this verse refers to the divine
ThiruvEnkatam mountain. In the eighth verse, the male
went to earn wealth. Now perhaps he is returning back
now.

But Azhagiya maNavaaLa jeeyer in his commentary refers
this verse 'mountain' to ThirumaalirunchOlai [Madurai
Azghagar kOil]. Thus AzhwAr has sung ThiruvEnkatam,
Thiruve:kaa, Thiruvarangam, ThirumaalirunchOlai divya
desams. 

AzhwAr ThiruvaDigaLE SaraNam,
