SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest Srivaishnavas,

Raman- KaNNan- they were all uttered by me and
described by me- Which form is that now? AzhwAr prays
to that form for His abhayam [assurance for me not to
fear] and for His bestowing His grace.

surumparanku thaNduzhaaythu
thainthalarntha paadhamE,
virumpin^inRi RaiNYchuvERki
rankaranka vaaNanE,
karumpiruntha kattiyE!ka
dalkidantha kaNNanE,
irumparanka veNYcharamthu
ranthavilli raamanE! (93)

Oh Sweetest vellakatti (jaggery) - Sweetest from Time
immemorial! Oh KaNNA! The One who reclines of Milky
Ocean! Oh Rama PiraanE! The One who has the divine Bow
that sent fiery arrows to destroy even the iron metal!
You are the One who is residing in Srirangam! Oh
RanganAThA! Please bless and bestow Your benevolent
mercy and compassion on me - who holds on to and who
desires for the divine red lotus feet of Yours alone
[and nothing else] where bees flock to the cool most
fragrant fresh thuLasi leaves open out fully.

You are the ParamabhOgyam at Paramapadham and in order
to save the Devas, You reclined on Milky Ocean and
also took Rama, krishna and other avathArams and not
pleased and satisfied with that, You bless us (the
likes of me) by showing yourself to be enjoyed by
naked eyes (prathyaksham) here - right here- as Lord
Rangan of Srirangam Dhivya kshEthram. You have been
residing here. Hence, You alone Rangaa should bless
this adiyEn (me) - Your devotees- who have considered
only Your Lotus feet [and nothing else] where most
fragrant thuLasi leaves are there and where bees drink
honey from these leaves. Similar to those leaves, we
(Asrithars) also drink the most divine red lotus
feet's beauty. 

karubu irundha kattiyE! From the sugarcane sticks, the
jaggery is made and formed and You are like that-
sweetest - personification of bhOgyam. Also, You have
been thus since time immemorial (irundha- present
always- eternal) Thus, Irundha karumbu kattiyE! 
kadaR kidantha kaNNanE!- KaNNA! The One who has
reclined on Milky ocean! 

yEsha nArAyaNa sreemaan ksheerArNava nikEthana: | 
nAgaparyankhamuthsrujya hyAgathO madhurAm purIm ||

Thus KsheerAbdhi sayanan took KaNNan avathAram. Thus
one can not go to Milky ocean often and enjoy You;
hence You decided to be right here at our doorstep in
Srirangam as Lord Thiruvarangan - Azhagiya maNavaaLan.

Even the iron forts and ramparts got destroyed- Thus
You had sent fiery arrow from Your divine Bow- Such
most valorous Lord are You Raamaa! You are the One who
is at Srirangam now.

PeriyAzhwAr also says:

sencholmaRaipporuLaakin^inRa
dhEvar_kaLn^aayakanE! emmaanE!
enchalilennudaiyinnamudhE!
Ezhulakumudaiyaay! ennappaa!

Oh Devaadhi dEvA! The one who is the essence of all
Vedas (which is full of sweet words)! My swami! My
sweetest divine insatiable nectar! The ruler of
fourteen worlds! My AppA! (Father) Lord RangA! When
the deceitful Yama dhUthAs forcibly snatch me and hold
me making me suffer, You should save me saying, ?Do
not fear? (anjal).

Thirumazhisai Piraan ThiruvadigaLE SaraNam

Namo Narayana
