Sri: SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha, Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin: 597. AmunchathAmaruNayAvakapankalakshmIm shONAshmanAm thava padhAvani! kAnthiyOgAth padhmAsahAyapadhapadhmanaKhA: shrayanthE sanDhyAnuranchithasuDhAkarabimbashOBhAm Oh Paaduka! When the Lord returns, it is evening. The nails of His feet bathing in the red halo of Padmaraga gems, as if they were treated with red lac, acquire the spectre of a full moon reddened in the eastern sky. Namo Narayana, SriMuralidhara Dasan Special Notes by V,Sadagopan (V.S): SlOkam 597 1)UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! The red glow from Your rubies resembles red sandal paste. When that glow combines with the sheen from Your Lord's beautiful white toe nails , it gives the impression of the beauty of Moon at dusk , when the sky is awash with ruby red color. 2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! Your red rubies emanate lustre that resembles the red sandal paste. When that red lustre falls on the brilliant white nails of the Lord, it reminds one of the Moon's white orbit at tawny dawn . 3) There is the beautiful white sheen from the toe nails of Sriya: Pathi( PadhmA-sahAya padha-padhma nakha kaanthi). The dawn-red beauty of the rubies enmeshed in the PaadhukAs blend with that white lustre ( AruNa yaavakapanka LakshmIm aamunchathAm Tava sONAsamanAm kaanti Yoga :). Yaavaka Panka is the red sandal paste arising from saffron blended with yellow sandal paste( Kaanhti Yogam) . The beauty produced ( LashmIm aamunchathAm ) by the admixture of this red sandal paste united with the white kaanthi of the toe nails of the Lord creates an aura of the white Moon against the red dawn . ( SandhyA anuranjitha sudhAkara-bhimbha sObhAm srayanthE)? (V.S)
