Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

Translation by U.Ve. Dr. V.N. Vedanta Desikan Swamin:

666. baDhnAsi rangEshvarapAdharakshE! harinmaNInAm praBhayA 
sPhuranthyA chUdApadhEShu shruthisundharINAm 
mAngaLyadhUrvAnkuramAlyapankthim

Oh Ranganatha Paaduka! The emeralds in You emit a green halo that 
looks like the garland of Durva grass (Aruhampul) encircling the 
heads of the Veda-damsels standing beside You in obeisance. 

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 666

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Swamy Desikan compares
the intertwined green rays of the emeralds adorning
the Lord's Paadhukais to a garland made of panic grass
(aruham pul), which is a special plant of delight to
VinAyakA. Swamy says: " Oh RanganAtha PaadhukE!
Through Your resplendent green rays associated with
Your dense row of emeralds , You look like a garland of 
auspicious panic grass on the heads of the VedAs (veda 
siras) taking the form of ladies to be near their Lord".

2. SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: Oh PaadhukE ! The green 
rays associated with Your emeralds are like an assembly of
aruham pul.The vedams taking the form of young women
place those rays on their heads (Upanishads) to experience 
auspiciousness. During the marriage ceremonies , aruham pul
is placed on the heads of the kanyAs . Lord is the Master
(husband) for the ladies taking the form of Vedams 
to serve their Lord. The inner meaning is that the Sanskritic 
VedAs adorn the AzhwAr's Paasurams on their heads 
for realizng auspiciousness. 

3.Oh RangEswara PaadharakshE! Your emerald rays create
(bhadhnAsi)the impression that there are rows of garlands of 
panic grass (dhUrvAnkura maalA) on the heads of the VedAs 
that have taken the form of ladies (Sruthi sundarIs)
serving their Lord ( Sruthi sundarINAm chUDApadhEshu
maangaLya dhUrvAnkura maalya pankthim bhadhnAsi). This 
effect arises from the unique lustre of Your emerald rays 
( Thvam HarimaNInAm sphuranthyA prabhayA badhnAsi)..(V.S).
