SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest all

After Nammazhwar anubhavams of Thiruvaymozhi [on
Thiruvenkatamudaiyaan], let us take up his other works
namely Tiruviruttham. 

Today?s verse on ThiruvEnkatam from this wonderful
work is the 10th verse of Tiruviruttham
Let us continue to enjoy

maayOn vadathiru vEngada
 naada,val likkodikaaL!
nOyO vuraikkilum kEtkinRi
 liirurai yiir numadhu
vaayO adhuvanRi valvinai
 yEnum kiLiyumeLgum
aayO adumthoNdai yO,aRai
 yOvi thaRivaridhE. 10

Essence: the male after having spent some time with
our lady, had left and has now desired to be with her
again; he makes an appeal through her friend and lets
her [the friend] know of his intention and his mind
[that is called ?mathi udan padhutthudhal];   

Oh flower -creeper like most beautiful girls! You both
have adopted the place of ThiruvEnkatam as the
residence; the place where the Lord of most auspicious
kalyANa guNAs and the Mysterious, Most wonderful Lord
is! Don?t you all know of my love? Even if you don?t
know by yourself, at elast can you not understand when
I tell you of my love? Can you not hear my words? Your
mouth beauty tortures me? Not only that; my parrot and
myself melt hearing the word ?aayO? the red bimbhA
fruit like lips are killing me; oh creeper like girls!
The word ?aayO:, the red bimbhA fruit like lips- which
one kills me- I am not able to comprehend. After
hearing my plea at least, please tell me and
elucidate. 

Inner meaning:

This verse may also be interpreted as the talk of
SrIvaishnava bhaagawathaas about the way they get
immersed themselves in the kalyANa guNAs of AzhwAr?s
and their bhakti for him. These Srivaishnava
bhaagawathas lose themselves in the ThirumEni
sonwdharyam of AzhwAr as well as His beauty of his
mouth [meaing: the words that come out of these lips-
jOthi vaay thiRandhu pEsum Thiruvaaymozhi? ] Aayo-
Thirumaymozhi words. So these bhaagwathas are not
aware as to which one melts them most. Bhaagathaas are
asking the same.. AzhwAr! The One who enslaves himself
as the only hold of ThiruvEnkatam! You are so divinely
beautiful. Due to the enormous bhakti for the Lord,
you do not hear our pleas and queries. Your bhakti
laden verses; your dhivya mangaLa divinely beautiful
ThirumEni [body] have melted me and my parrot as well.
Which one is more grand- please tell us.. your
ThirumEni or your words from that beautiful jOthi vaay
[mouth] ?
