Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

952. api janmani pAdhukE! Parasmin
        anaGhaI: karmaBhirIdhrishO BhavEyam
        ya imE vinayana rangaBharthu: 
        samayE thvAm padhayO: samarpayanthi

Oh Paaduka! Previleged are those persons doing pious
services at the Feet of Lord Ranganatha, respectfully
submitting You at the Lord's Feet for being worn! Will
I be ever enabled, by virtue of flawless acts of mine,
to secure another birth to do similar service to the
Lord? Please do grant one such!

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE! May I become
one of the fortunate few , who become blessed to present You at 
the appropriate times to Your Lord with humility . May I be blessed
with this boon to become sinless and to engage in such services to 
you 
atleast in my next birth , if I miss that opportunity in this birth .
 
Swamy  Desikan talks about here about the next birth , although 
those  
who gain moksham through the grace of the PaahdukAs  do not have 
any more births. This statement is indicative of Swamy Desikan's 
special joy in serving RanganAtha through PaadhukA Kaimkaryam
instead of staying in Vaikuntam as a result of  attaining Moksham.
Earlier in SrI VaradarAja PanchAsath , Swamy  Desikan has stated 
in a similar vein that he would prefer to return to this earth to 
serve 
and enjoy Lord VaradarAjan than staying in Vaikuntam without any
rebirths (Vaikunta VaasEapi na mE abhilAsha: ) . Parasara Bhattar , 
the precocious son of KurEsar , the prime disciple of AchArya 
RaamAnujA 
also expressed a similar sentiment .It appears that all the servants 
of 
Ranganatha are equal in status to those , who permanently reside in 
SrI Vaikuntam. That is why SrIrangam is known as BhUlOka Vaikuntam .
 
2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! It does not matter 
if you do not grant me the Parama PurushArTam of Moksham after
removing my sambhandham with this physical body . It will be 
sufficent 
for me if You grant me another birth with a body to be born as 
the archaka for Lord RanganAtha to present  You ( PaadhukAs)
to Him on the prescribed occasions ( Uchitha Kaalams) . Kaimkaryam
to You (Paadhukais) will be sufficent in this earth than Moksham 
itself .
Please bless me with the BhAgyam to be born as an Archakar  of
Lord Ranganatha . Wherever I am , May I be blessed to be engaged
in uninterrupted kaimkaryam to You .That itself is the equal to 
Moksham.
May I be engaged in Bhagavath PaadhukA Kaimkaryam right here 
if I do not get to enjoy the BhOgyA adhisayam at SrI Vaikuntam .

3) Oh PadhukE! The ArchakAs of Lord RanganAtha present You 
to Him with humility during His Uhtsava Kaala sanchaarams and
during the six Aasana kaalams linked to His AarAdhanams 
( PaadhukE ! yE imE vinayEna samayE ThvAm Rangabharthu :
padhayO: samarpayanthi ). Incidentally , The ArchakAs of Lord 
RanganAtha belonging to five gOthrams are said to have descended 
with their Lord to perform exclusive AarAdhanam for Him . Swamy
Desikan points out that the ArchakAs are rid of all sins through
such Kaimkaryams ( anagai: karmabhi: Idhrusa: ) and prays for 
the boon of being born as Lord RanganAthA's archakan in the next
Janmam ( Karmabhi: Idhrusa: parasmin janmani api bhavEyam )...(V.S).
