Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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


869. shuBhapraNAdhA BhavathI shruthInAm kaNTEShu vaIkuNTapathimvarANAm
bhaDhnAsi nUnam maNipAdharakshE! mangaLyasUthram maNirashmijAlaI:

Oh Manipaaduka! The Vedas choose and desire to have, as their 
husband, the Lord Narayana alone. You help and assist the Lord tying 
the Mangalya-sootra in the necks of the Vedic damsels. At that 
moment, You pronounce mantras in sweet voice. This is certain. 

The Paaduka acts as a priest, so to say. Her service may be likened 
to that of Azhvar, who, by his works, established that the subject of 
all Vedas is only the Lord.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan
