Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

602. rangEshithurviharathO maNipAdharakshE!
raThyAntharE sumanasa: parikIryamANA:
thvathpadhmarAgakiraNacChuraNAdhBhajanthE
sanDhyAthapAntharithathArakapankthilakshmIm

Oh Paaduka! As Lord Ranganatha walks across the street, admirers 
sprinle flowers on the path. These flowers, under the impact of the 
Padmaraga lustre falling on them look like stars in the red horizon 
of the evening dusk. 

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 602

1)UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! When RanganAtha travels 
around the streets of Srirangam, His devotees shower a lot of white 
jasmine flowers as a sign of their affection and reverence. The red
color from Your rubies falls on those white flowers and the mingling 
of the two makes it look like the red evening sky interspersed with 
stars of the evening . The scene is like the white stars against the 
background of what is known as "ManjaL Veyyil ". 

2)The Lord is having sanchAram in the streets of SrIrangam and is 
being transported by His Paadhukais , where the red rays from their
rubies are falling on the copious rain of white flowers showered by
the BhakthAs of the Lord (Viharatha: rangEsithu: raTyAntharE 
parikeeryamANaa: sumansa: ). The admixture of the red rays from
the rubies with the white mallikai pushpams (Thvath PadhmarAga
kiraNa cchuraNAth ) create a special, beautiful effect (viz)., the 
rows of white stars against the background of reddish dusk 
(sandhyAtapa antharitha taaraka pankthi lakshmIm bhajanthE )?(V.S).
