Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

664. haritha sahasA harinmaNInAm praBhayA ranganarEndhrapAdharakshE!
thuLasIdhaLasampadham dhaDhAthi thvayi BhakthaIrnihitha: 
prasUnarAshi:

Oh Rangaraja Paaduka! The heaps of flower petals cast on You in 
reverential archana etc. turn to a green appearance by the effect of 
light from Your emerald stones. They appear to be Tulasi leaves!

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 664:

1)UtthamUr Swamy 's anubhavam: Oh RanganAtha PaadhukE! The flower
bunches placed at Your feet by Your devotees absorb the green rays
of Your emeralds and quickly attain the color of green and thus
reach the status of the holy TuLasi .

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam:Oh PaadhukE! Kaimkarya parALs 
place the brilliantly white flowers like Mallikai , Mullai 
and white lotus on You adorned with the beautiful emerald gems 
radiating green rays. When the sEvArthis witness this 
intermingling of the lustre of the white flowers with 
the green rays arising out of Your emeralds, they get 
the impression that the resulting green lustre is that of 
the TuLasi leaves resting over You.

3) Oh the Paadhukais of the Lord of SrIrangam ( hE Ranga-
narEndhra paadhukE)! The heap of white flowers are placed
by devotees on You protecting the Thiruvadis of the Lord
( Bhakthai: nihitha: prasoona raasi:). The whiteness of thse
flower assembly intermingles with the brilliant green rays
originating from the emeralds positioned on You and
produces immediatelty a green halo (HarimaNInAm prabhayA 
sahasA haritha:) around the Lord's Thiruvadis. This union
of the hue of the white flowers with the green rays of 
the emeralds gives the impression of tender green shoots of 
TuLasi adorning the Lord's sacred feet...(V.S).
