Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

676. naKhakiraNanikAyaIrnithyamAvirmruNAlE
mahitharasavishEShE mEchakaIramshuBhisthE
parikalayasi ramyAm pAdhukE! rangaBharthu:
padhakamalasamIpE padhminIpathrapankthim

Oh Paaduka! The Lord's foot-nails give an effulgence as a streak, 
which is the stalk; the two feet of the Lord with their lovable 
nectar-flow are the lotuses and the green halo transmitted are the 
green lotus leaves-thus creating an imagery of a lotus pond.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

slOkam 676:

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! with 
the combination of Your emerald rays , the proximity of Your 
Lord's blessed feet and its radiant toe nails , Your emeralds 
appear like rows of lotus leaves in a lotus pond. The white 
cluster of rays originating from Your Lord's toe nails 
look like the white stems of lotus ; the sweet and celebrated
honey flowing from the holy feet of Your Lord appears 
like the waters of the lotus pond. In this analogy , Lord's
holy feet are the twin lotuses.

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! PerumAL's
Thiruvadi reminds one of the beautiful, soft petaled lotus.
The lustre arising from the toe nails of the lord reminds
one of the white lotus stems culminating in the leaves .
The green hue of the emeralds makes us recall the green 
lotus leaves of the pond.The preethi for the Thiruvadis
of the Lord is like the water in which the lotus sprouts
and shines.

3) Oh PaadhukE! You generate the rows of green lotus leaves
through Your green radiance emanating from Your emralds
( PaadhukE! tE mEchakai: amsubhi: ramyAm padhminipathra
pankthim parikalayasi). You are near the Tiruvadis of
the Lord of Srirangam ( Rangabharthu: padha kamala
sameepE tE Padhmini pathra pankthim parikalayasi).
For those rows of lotus leaves arising from the radiance
of Your emeralds , the white stem is the radiance 
generated by Your Lord's toe nails ( Rangabharthu: 
nakha kiraNa nikAyai: nithyam aavi: mruNALE ). 
The water in which those lotus stem and leaves 
thrive is the Thiruvadi of the Lord ( mahitha
rasavisEshE Rangabharthu: padha Kamala:)...(V.S).
