Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

603. rangADhirAjapadharakshiNi! biBhrathasthvAm
gangAtharangavimalE girishasya moULoU
samvarDhayanthi mahasA thava padhmarAgA:
shaIlAthmajAcharaNayAvakapankalakshmIm

Oh Rangarajapaaduka! Sive bears You on his head after cleansing his 
head, of all past red dye remanant, with the Ganga waters of his 
head. Nevertheless, Your Padmaraga gems bestow a beaming red colour 
on Siva's head to create an imagery of the red lac from Parvati's 
feet.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 603

1)UthtamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh RangarAja PaadhukE! RudrA's head 
wears You (SatAri) on his head. At that time, the red color from Your 
rubies fall on the head of Rudran washed by the white waters of 
GangA . That reminds me of the residue of the red lacquer dye from 
Parvathi's feet that stuck to RudrA's head , when he bowed before Her
to quench Her anger as a part of their PraNaya kalaham . 

2)SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is that the supreme 
devotee of the Lord, Rudran, places the paasurams of Swamy
NammAzhwAr on His head and becomes blemishless. 

3) Rudran has a siras, which is made blemishless by the flow of the 
sacred GangA water, which arose from the Lord's feet during the 
ThrivikramAvathAram. On that head rests the Paadhukai of 
the Lord ( ThvAm Bhibratha: Girisasya GangA taranga vimalE
mouLou). The red rays of ruby now fall on that sacred head of
Rudran and enhances the red beauty marks that are already there 
(Tava PadhmarAgaa: mahasA LakshmIm samvardhayanthi). 
What is it that was there ? The red marks from the LaakshA 
Rasam of Paarvathi's feet lodged there during the lover's fight 
is there. The red rays from the rubies enhance that red hue..(V.S).
