Sri:
SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,
Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:

178. anitharavahanIyam manthrimuKhyaIryadhA thath
thvayi vinihithamAsIth sUryavamshADhirAjyam
raGhupathipadharakshE! rathnapITE tadhAnIm
shriyamiva dhadhrushusthvAm sAdharam lOkapAla:

Oh Paaduka! You reigned as the Empress of the throne of 
the Solar Dynasty, which cannot be managed by anyone else. 
When the chief advisors enthroned You, the Devas guarding over 
the eight directions, worshipped You as they would 
Sri Mahalakshmi. Thus You are the veritable Lakshmi!

Namo Narayana,
SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

(1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Here, Swamy Desikan
salutes the Lord's Paadhukai as Soorya Vamsa Raaja Lakshmi.
He points out that the Lords of the eight directions 
(dhig PaalakAs) recognized this principle behind
the Paadhukai.He says that they recognized You as 
PaadhukA Lakshmi protecting the wealth of Soorya Vamsam. 
Swamy Desikan hints that Soorya Vamsa Raaja Lakshmi 
will stay in the kingdom as long as the PaadhukAs 
sat on the throne as the representative of 
Lord RaamachandrA .

(2) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam :Oh Raghupathi PaadhukE !
When the kingdom of KosalA could not be ruled even by
wise ministers like Sumanthrar , You accepted the royal
duties in the name of Your Lord and sat on the throne
of the Raghus. The kings of the earth and the Lords 
of the eight directions saw You then as saakshAth
MahA Lakshmi .The inner meaning is that the SadhAchAryan
appears to the devout sishyan as the embodiment of 
Jn~Anam, anushtAnam , VairAgyam , KshamA and dayA .
Mahaa Lakshmi indeed incarnates as SadhAchAryALs. 

(3)Swamy Desikan says here that the weight of 
the solar dynasty could not be borne even by 
the key ministers like Sumanthrar ( SooryavamsAdhi-
raajyam manthri mukyai: anitharavahaneeyam ); then ,
PaadhukA took over that burden of ruling the kingdom 
and sat on the throne of the kings of the solar race.
At that time ,The dhigpaalakAs worshipped with ardour 
the Paadhukai seatd on the gem-studded throne of Raghus as 
MahA Lakshmi Herself ( LokapAlA: thvAm rathnapeeDE 
Sriyamiva saadharam dadhrusu:)...V.S
