Translation by U.Ve.Sri V.N.Vedantha Desikan Swamy
***************************************************

Oh Mother PaadhukE ! At the time of Your auspicous 
entry into the city of AyOdhyA , the windows of the city
were decorated , as it were with lotus flowers with
hovering-bees , when the beautiful faces of the damsels
looked through the windows with their eyes wandering
here and there.

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

(1) Sri UthtamUr Swamy's anubhavam:

Oh Kind Mother PaadhukAs ! When You entered the streets 
of AyOdhyA , the eyes of all the ladies of that city ,
resembling the quickly moving bees , were riveted to 
the windows of their houses. Their faces resembled 
the lotus flowers. Suddenly , it looked as though 
the windows of the houses were filled with blossoemed
lotuses surrounded by fast moving bees.

(2)Srimath Andaban's anubhavam:

Oh PaadhukE ! The ladies of AyOdhyA enjoyed 
the uthsavam of Your entry into AyOdhyA from
the vantage point of their windows . Their faces were 
joyous like the freshly boomed lotuses . The rapid
movement of their eyes following Your pattiNa pravEsam
was like rapidly moving honey bees.

(3) Swamy Desikan's kalpanA presents us the windows
of the houses of AyOdhyA as being populated by multitudes
of lotuses in the morning greeting the rising Sun . These
are the beautiful faces of the ladies of AyOdhyA , who 
could follow the festivities easily from their windows. 
The PaadhukAs were on top of a tall , majestic elephant
and the viewing of them from the upper elevation
of the windows made it possible for them to have the mangala 
darsanam of the sacred Paadhukais of RaamA . Their
dark eyes were moving rapidly out of their eagerness 
to follow the progress of the Paadhukais from every
angle . Those rapid eye movement of the ladies 
is equated by Swamy Desikan to the speedy rush of 
the dark hued , swarm of honey bees...V.S
