Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

685. charaNAvani! BhAthi sahyakanyA
harinIladhyuthiBhisthavAnuviDdhA
vasudEvasuthasya rangavrutthE:
yamunEva svayamAgathA samIpam

Oh Paaduka! Your sapphires have shed their lustre and hue on the 
river Kaveri; when it is of dark waters flowing near Srirangam; one 
wonders if it were the Yamuna that had come to please and serve 
Krishna, resident here!

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 685:

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam : "Oh PaadhukE! River Cauveri 
originating from the sahyA mountains blends with the blue rays of 
Your sapphire and shines like Yamuna river flowing near BrindhAvan 
to serve KrishNa". All agree that RanganAthA is indeed KrishNa. 
Here, Swamy Desikan states that the dark blue sheen attained by 
CauvEri at SrIrangam makes it look like YamunA , which has 
come to SrIrangam to be close to its Lord. YamunA is known
for its dark-hued stream.

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam:Oh PaadhukE! When the bluish 
lustre of Your sapphires fall on the Cauveri with its reddish
swirling waters , they convert them in to a dark bluish-black
hue.This makes one think that the dark watered YamunA has 
arrived at SrIrangam spontaneously to be near Her Lord ,
who played on Her banks during KrishNAvathAram. 

3) Swamy Desikan addresses the Lord as the One resting
under the Ranga VimAnam as the son of VasudEvar ( RangavrutthE:
VasudEva suthan). When the intense bluish hue of the sapphire
from His Paadhukais ( Tava Harineela dhyuthibhi: bhAthi) fall
on the daughter of Sahya Mountains , Cauveri , then that Cauveri
with reddish waters transforms in to a dark blue color , which
makes one think as though the river Yamunai has come near
her Lord to serve Him ( sahyakanyA Tava Dhyuthibhi: YamunEva
bhAthi)..(V.S).
