Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

605. haripadharuchirANAm pAdhukE! thAvakAnAm 
aruNamaNigaNAnAm nUnamarDhEndhumoULi:
praNathisamayalagnAm vAsanAmEva DhatthE
kalamakaNishakAnthisparDhinIBhirjatABhi:

Oh Paaduka! Siva with his moon-digit bears You. He has got the colour 
for his locks of hair from the moon. They resemble bunches of grain 
stack in lustre. I fain conjecture that it is Your Padmaragas that 
conferred their quality-colour, for example- on the Jatas of Siva.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 605

1)UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Here , Swamy Desikan describes the 
special fragrance , color and beauty that the matted locks of Rudra 
obtain , when the rays from the red rubies of the Paadhukais fall on 
His head . Swamy says : " Oh PaadhukE! RudrA's matted locks attain a 
golden red sheen due to association with the lustre of Your rubies. 
That makes the locks look like the sheaves of ripe winter rice crop . 
This lustre is not diluted by the white rays of the crescent Moon on 
Rudra's head . The fragrance of Your Lord's lotus feet also enters 
RudrA's matted locks , when the rays of Your rubies fall on them. 
Both an ethereal beauty and fragrance are acquired by RudrA's locks 
as a result of association with You. 

2)SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is that Rudran 
celebrates Swamy NammAzhwAr paasurams by adorning them on His
head . 

3) Lord Sivan has crescent Moon on His tresses (ardhEndhu mouLi )
and is further distinguished by the reddish gold matted locks on His 
head that seem to fight with each other ( kaLamakaNisa kAnthi 
spardhinIbhi: jaDAbhi: ) as He moves His head . On that siras falls
the red rays from the rubies of the Paadhukais , which get enhanced
in its red hue through contact with the red lotus feet of its Lord .
Rudran adorns those red ruby rays , which have the sambhandham of 
the Lord's sacred feet and becomes fulfilled .
