SrImathE Gopaladesika Mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas,

AzhwAr enjoys the effortless killing of seven bulls by
KaNNan.

Aanaikaatthu Or aaNnai konRa adhanRi aayar piLLaiyaay
aanaimEytthi aa ney uNdi anRukunRam onRinaal
aanai kaatthu maiyari kaN maadharaar thiRatthu mun
aanai anRu senRu adarttha maayam enna maayamE?     
(40)

Saving [protecting] elephant [GajEndran]; appearing as
cowherd Boy killing an elephant (Kuvalayaapeetam); and
(not just that) reared (mEytthu) cattle (Aaanai also
means cows); eaten Ghee of cows [Aa ney uNdi] in large
quantities; and during such rearing of cattle [at that
young age] lifted the whole huge mountain Govardhanam
and protected the cows; and when declared as the prize
of collyrium applied large, well laid out ruddy lined
most beautiful eyed most feminine Nappinnai Piraatti
herself, He  went on top of every other deed of His
and killed the seven bulls together at on stroke at
such ease as the wonder of all wonders.

First line- Anai means elephant; Aa- also means cows.
Hence Aa ney- cow ghee?

Maadharaar thiRatthu- for the sake of maadhar
[Nappinnai PiraaTTi], He did such a great deed with an
effortless act. Whether the seven bulls came one 
after the other; Or they were together in a row- is
besides the point. He killed them all to win the hand
of PiraaTTi.
