Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

905. chathuravihAriNIm ruchirapaksharuchim BhavathIm
     manasijasAyakAsanaguNOchithamanjuravAm
     anupadhamAdhriyEmahi mahEndhrashilAmahithAm
     haricharaNAravindhamakarandhamaDhuvrathikAm

Oh Paaduka! You are like a female beetle hovering around the Feet-
lotuses of the Lord! You excel in walking gait; Your sides are 
beautiful; You emit a note melodious like the chord-striking arrow of 
Kama. You possess sapphires; like You, the beetle comes round and 
round; with beautiful wings, black colour, and sweet melody. 
May we pay respectful homage to You at all times!

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

 
Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
SlOkam 905
 
1. UtthamUr  Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! We salute You as the 
blue female bee, who drinks the honey from the lotus feet of Your 
Lord. You are like the sweet sounding bee made up of Your blue rows 
of sapphire, which pushes the flower arrows of ManmathA and imbues 
them with a sweet sound caused by Your exertions during the 
sanchArams. You serve as the chord of his bow made of 
Sugarcane plant.
 
2. SrImath Andavan's anubhavam:Oh PaadhukE! Your dark blue hue 
arising from the sapphires on You make You resemble a female blue bee 
in deep love with Your Lord. You seem to live and thrive by the honey 
flowing out of the lotus feet of Your Lord. For You that anubhavam of 
Your Lord's sacred feet seems to be the JeevAdhAram (basis for 
existence), BhOgyam ( enjoyable entity) and pOshakam(nourishment).
Your abhinivEsam (intense desire) for Your Lord, viraha vyasanam ( 
sorrow on seperation from Your Lord) and ananya gathithvam ( not 
desiring any one else as means and phalan except Your Lord) are 
manifestations of Your PathivrathA Dharmam. When You as a female bee 
are engaged in speedy flights , your movement looks like a moving 
dark line reminding us of the chord of ManmathA's bow. 
 
3. Swamy Desikan celebrates the many vaibhavams of Paadhukais of the 
Lord and states that we will refelct on that Vaibhavam every 
second : "Hari CharaNa aravindha makarandha madhuvrathkAm Bhavatheem 
anupadham aadhriyEmahi ". Here PaadhukA identifies the Paadhukais as 
the bee (MadhuvrathikA ) for the honey (makarandham) flowing from the 
lotus feet of the Lord (Hari CharaNam ). Swamy Desikan visualizes the 
Vaibhavam in number of ways in this slOkam : " Chathura vihAriNee" ( 
very skilled movements) , "Ruchira paksha ruchi " ( beautiful golden
lustre of the sides ) , delectable sound as the sound generated by 
the chord from the bow of ManmathA ( manasija sAyakAsana guNa uchitha 
manju svAm) and have the kaanthi reminiscent of sapphires ( 
MahEndraseelaa mahithAm).
