Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

788. baDdhAsikA kanakapankajakarNikAyAm
maDhyE krushA muraripOrmaNipAdhukE! thvam
sandhrushyasE sarasijAsanayA gruhItham
rUpAntharam kimapi rangavihArayOgyam

Oh Manipaaduka! As You are seated on the sataari in the shrine, it 
looks as though You are seated in the seed at the centre of a lotus; 
like Mahalakshmi, again, You have a thin waist. You too relish the 
strolls in Srirangam. I can well say, You are a dancer-like Lakshmi, 
in the stage, that the holy city is. 

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

SrI:

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan(V.S)

SlOkam 788:

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Here, Swamy Desikan compares Paadhukais
with Sri Devi in three aspects. He notes that SrI Devi and Paadhukais 
have the following three features in comon: (1) Being narrow at their 
mid-portions of their bodies (i-e) slender waistedness (2) Being 
seated on a golden lotus (3) Enjoying the company of RanganAtha. 
Swamy Desikan says: " Oh Madhusoodhana PaadhukE! You resemble the 
slender-waisted SrI Devi sitting on the golden lotus enjoying the 
intimate company of RanganAtha. Therefore, I think You are another 
form of SrI Devi because of Your resemblence to Her in number of
aspects.

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! When I look at You , It 
appears as though MahA Lakshmi has taken another form to move around 
in SrIrangam. 

3) Oh PaadhukE ! You are in the fruit of the golden lotus ( Kanaka 
Pankaja karNikAyAm bhaddha AasikA). You are slender in the middle 
portion ( Thvam madhyE krusA). You appear further to have the 
indescribable form taken by MahA Lakshmi for sanchAram
in SrIrangam ( Thvam SarasijAsanAya gruhItham Ranga vihAra yOgyam 
kimapi roopAntharam samdhrusyasE )...(V.S).
