Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

Translation of Paaduka Sahasram by U.Ve. Sri V.N. Vedanta Desikan
Swamin: 

104. mathvA thruNAya BharathO maNipAdharakshE!
rAmENa thAm viraithAm raGhurAjaDhAnIm 
thvAmEva sapraNayamujjayinImavanthIm
mEnE mahOdhayamayIm maDhurAmayODhyAm

Oh Paaduka! Bharata looked upon the kingdom, that was deprived of 
Rama (and secured for him by his mother) with contempt and indifference 
as if it were a mere leaf of grass. But he accepted You with love-
greater than for Rama!-as Ujjayini(one of superior lustre), as Avanti 
(one which would save him from stigma), as Madhura (one which is 
pleasing to all), as Ayodhya (an unassailable one)-even as Vaikunta-
and as auspices-filled; Behold Your greatness! (Ayodhya is also a 
name for Vaikunta)

Namo Narayana,

Adiyen, 

SriMuralidhara Dasan
