Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:

423. raThyAsu ranganrupathErmaNipAdharakshE!
thvadhgarBharathnajanithO maDhura: praNAdha:
sandarshanOthsukaDhiyAm purasundharINAm
sampadhyathE shravaNamOhanamanthraGhOSha:

Oh Manipaaduka! When You generate a melodious sound as You take the 
Lord through the streets of Srirangam, the city-damsels come in great 
enthusiasm for worshipping the Lord; the sound acts as a mesmeric 
mantra on their ears.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 423:

1) Sri UtthamUr Swamy's anbubhavam : Oh PadhukE! On the streets of 
Srirangam , the sweet and sacred sound arising from the gems and 
bells decorating You sound like the sacred Veda manthrAs to the 
ears of the ladies of Srirnagam .They are captivated by the sound 
of Yours resembling Vedic hymns as You transport the Lord through 
the many streets of Srirangam.

2) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is that those who 
are reciting ThiruvAimozhi inside their homes are reluctant to stop 
it and step outside, even when RanganAthA travels in front of their 
houses. 

3) Swamy Desikan refers here to the power of the naadham generated by 
the gems inside the Kumizh ( Thvath garbha-rathna janitha Madhura: 
PraNAdha: ). The ladies of the houses of Srirangam are listening to 
the recitation of Swamy NammAzhwAr's ThiruvAimozhi and are 
overpowered by the enchantement of that recitation (Sravana mOhana 
manthra-ghOsha: ). They had the good intention of coming out of 
their houses to offer their worship to Lord RanganAthA as He 
travelled in front of their homes with upahAram . The power of the 
recitation makes them spellbound and they forget to step out of their 
homes during the time of listening to ThiruvAimozhi recitation ?(V.S)
