Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

554. baDhnAsi rangapathiviBramapAdhukE! thvam
mAyAkirAthamakutE nivabarhamAlAm
AkruShtavAsavaDhanushshakalaIrmaNInAm
anyOnyasanGhatithakarburithaIrmayUKhaI:

Oh Paaduka helping Lord Ranganatha in His strolls! The gems combine 
to give a multiplicity of colours; Its beauty could defeat that of a 
rainbow. In fact, it looks as though there are so many fragments of 
rainbow in it! When Siva, in a hunter robe, bows, it becomes another 
garland of peacock feathers by reflection on his crown.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

1) UthamUr Sawmy's anubhavam:Oh PaadhukE! When Rudra bows before 
You, the multicolored radiations from Your many gems fall on his head 
and look like a garland made of peacock feathers. Your rainbow like 
decorations remind me of RudrA , who took the form of a hunter to 
teach a lesson to Arjuna before blessing him . 

2) Oh PaadhukE! There are many radiant gems that adorn You. Their 
lustre reminds one of a rainbow among rain-laden clouds. When Lord 
Sivan adorns You on his head , he appears as though he is wearing a 
garland made of peacock feathers. The inner meaning is that the 
Sarvaj~nan , Rudhra Sivan celebrates Swamy NammAzhwAr's dhivya 
sokthis with bent head .

3)Oh Paadhukai intended for the sanchAram of RanganAthA ( Rangapathi 
vibrama PaadhukE )! When you rest on the head of Lord Sivan , who 
took on the role of hunter to confront Arjunan , You appear like 
the rainbow ( Thvam aakrushta Vaasava dhanu: sakalai: iva ) . The 
interplay of the colored gems on You ( anyOnya sangaDitha 
karBurithai: maNInAm mayUkhai : ) remind me of the newly made peacock 
garland on the crown of Lord Sivan, who appeared before ArjunA in 
the form of a hunter ( MaayAkirAtha makuDE navaBarha maalAm 
BadhnAsi)..V.S
