Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

682. harirathnamarIchayasthavaIthE navanIlIrasanirvishEShavarNA:
shruthamUrDhani shoUripAdharakshE! palithAnudhBhavaBhEShajam 
Bhavanthi

Oh Paaduka! The blue radiance from Your sapphires serves as a novel 
pigment with which the hairs of the Veda-damsels are kept ever black, 
not likely to turn grey.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 682:

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! The color of 
Your sapphire rays resemble the color of the Indigo dye. 
When those sapphire rays fall on the heads of the ancient
Veda MaathA standing in front of Your Lord, they serve 
as medicine to prevent their hair becoming gray. Thus, the VedAs
never show signs of old age inspite of them being very old."
Indigo dye has the capacity to dye permanently white clothes
with a blue tint.

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! You have blue
sapphire stones enmeshed on You. When one assesses their 
lustre , it looks like aviricchAyam (Indigo dye).That "dye"
serves as a medicine to prevent the hair of the Vedic
damsels from getting gray .

3)Oh Souri PaadharakshE ! The bluish sheen from Your
sapphire gems are identical to the fresh Indigo dye
( Tava yEthE Harirathna marIchaya: neelarasa nirvisEsha 
varNA:). These bluish rays from Your Indhra neela gems
act as a medicine to offset the grayness of hair
developed by the Vedic ladies ( Tava harirathna marIchaya:
Sruthi moordhani palitha anudhbhava bhEshajam bhavanthi)..(V.S)
