Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

683. aLakaIriva bimbithaI: shruthInAm harinIlaI: srujasi 
thvamunmayUKhaI:
kamalAdhayithasya pAdharakshE! karuNOdhanbathi shaIvalaprarOhAn

Oh Paaduka! When the Veda-damsels bend and pay obeisance to You, 
their fore-locks of hair get reflected in You. Would then the result 
be the blue radiance from Your sapphires? Or else, the picture is 
that of a moss, which is usually a clarifier of muddy water, this 
moss being presumably the reason for the Lord being an ocean of 
mercy, never stirred, disturbed or confused!

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 683:

1)UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! The blue rays from 
Your sapphires resembling the color of the forelocks of VedAs 
(Vedic ladies) are seen on the ocean of Lord's mercy as lichen.
They remove the sins of all those , who wear You on their heads".
Lichen is known for its property to remove the dirt from unclean
waters and purify them. Swamy Desikan points out that the bluish
rays from sapphire frees the ocean of Lord's mercy of any 
hindrances/blemishes just as lichen and lets the flood of Lord's 
mercy flow without any blockage.

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is: Paadhukai
is considered as Swamy NammAzhwAr and the Paasurams of
ThiruvAimozhi are equated to the different gems on it.
Those paasurams reveal the meanings of the Upanishads.
Those paasurams grow many fold the Dayaa of the Lord for 
Jeevans like us. The Ocean (of Dayaa) waters are not 
muddy , when there is green lichen .

3) Oh PaadhukE! The abundantly lustrous rays of Your 
Indhra Neela gems are like reflections of the hairs 
on the siras of the vedic ladies ( Thvam BimBithai: 
SrutheenAm aLakairiva ). That dominant lustre of 
Your Indhraneela gems serve as the water-cleansing
lichen for the ocean of DayA of Your Lord so that
the ocean of DayA of the Lord can flow without 
any hindrance ( anmayUkai: Harinelai: KamalAdayithasya
karuNA udhanvathi saivala prarOhAn srujasi)..(V.S).
