SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest Srivaishnavas, 

After enjoying ArA amudhan of Thirukkudanthai, AzhwAr
enjoys the lion of ThirukkuRunkudi.

karaNdamaadu poykaiyuLka
  rumpaNnaippe rumpazham,
puraNduveezha vaaLaipaayku
  Runkudin^e dunthakaay,
thiraNdathOLi raNiyansi
  NnankoLaaka monRaiyum,
iraNdukooRu seydhukandha
  sinkamenpa thunnaiyE     (62)

The water crows immerse themselves in the river canals
and take bath, and when a fruit from a nearby tree
falls into the water, the darting fishes jump with
fear thinking that it is the crow that has fallen
inside the waters to catch them- such most beautiful
fertile place is ThirukkuRunkudi. Oh most merciful
Lord of ThirukkuRunkudi! Parama dhayALu! You tore the
body of strong shouldered, fearless angry
HiraNyakasipu into two pieces and paved the way fro
Prahalada to please yourself for having saved the
dearest devotee of Yours. You alone are that Most
ferocious most merciful Lion faced Lord-Nrsimham.

Nedunthagaay! Thagai- mercy- compassion of His- is
huge- GRAND- beautiful; merciful.. [Swamy desikan has
sung 108 verses on His dayaa gunA alone]. 

Even I enjoy You here at ThirukkuRunkudi, I realize
that it is You who went to tear the fearless
HiraNyakasipu into two pieces. You are Narasinga
mUrthy. When the fishes get scared even for the fruits
falling into the waters, this rakshasa did not get
scared and feel any fear after having seen your
NarakEsari rUpam also. 

Thirumangai AzhwAr had praised the Lord of
ThirukkuRunkudi and he ascended to Paramapadham fron
this dhiyva desam:

Let us reflect upon one of the ThirukkuRungudi 
Paasurams of Thirumangai AzhwAr:

NinRa Vinayum Thuyarum keda Maamalar-yEnthi ,
  senRu paNimin yezhumin Thozhumin ThoNDIrkALL ,
yenRum iravum pahalum vari vanDu isai paada ,
  kunRin Mullai ManRidai nARum KURUMKUDIYE 

Oh servants (of Sriman Narayanan)! The Pure you- take
the agni (fire) for dhoopam; neer (water) for argyam;
the coloured flowers for archana.. etc..(fragrant
dhravyams like sandal paste); offer anjali to PerumAn
by prostrating Him.. And be saved. This PerumAn has
got dark blue ocean like ThirumEni (Divine Body). He
resides permanently in this Divya Desam of 
ThirukkuRunkudi, where the tall buildings appear to
touch the crescent moon that loiters in the sky.
