Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

722. prathyAgathO vijayini praThamE raGhUNAm
vinyasyathi thvayi padham maNipAdharakshE!
rathnoUGhabimbithanishAcharavAnarAm thvAm
pUrvAkshaNasThamiva puShpakamanvapashyan

Oh Manipaaduka! When the greatest of the Raghus, Sri Rama, returned 
victorious, he inserted His feet on to You. At that moment, the 
Rakshasas and the Vanaras standing all around, were found reflected 
in the rows of gems on You, exactly as all were present in the 
Pushpaka Vimana previously, thus enabling the people (of Ayodhya) to 
witness the Vimana scene, re-enacted.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 722

1) UtthamUr Swamy's anubhavam: Oh Mani PaadhukE! When the scion of 
the family of Raghus returned to AyOdhyA after destroying RaavaNa ,
BharathA united RaamA's holy feet with You. At that time , 
the reflections of all the monkeys, bears and asurAs , who
accompanied RaamA on the Pushpaka VimAnam were seen on Your
many gems. Those at the scene seeing this image thought that 
You are indeed that aerial chariot (Pushpaka VimAnam) that 
transported all the retinue of Raama on His journey from 
LankA to AyOdhyA.

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The moment Lord Raamachandra
stepped out of the Pushpaka VimAnam with His entourage from
LankA , Bharatha united his brother's feet with the joyous 
Paadhukais, which was longing for that reunion with its master.
All the entourage of the Lord was reflected on the gems of
the Paadhukais at that moment. That imagery made the Paadhukais 
appear like the Pushpaka vimAnam that carried few moments before 
all the entourage of the Lord . 

3)Lord Raamachnadra , the noblest of Raghu vamsam returned 
from Lanka after His victory over Raavana ( Vijayani prathyAgathE
RaghUNAm prathama:).He united His feet with His Paadhukais
( RaghUNAm PraTamE Thvayi padham vinyasyathi). At that time,
the reflections of the assemblage of asuraas and monkeys 
that accompanied the Lord from LankA are seen on the gems of 
the Paadhukais( Padham Thvayi vinyasyathi sathi rathnouga 
Bhimbhitha nisAchara VaanarAm). The citizens of AyOdhyA were
waiting to see their Lord unite with His PaadhukAs to symbolize
His resumption of duties as their king . The imagery of 
the monkeys and asurAs on the gems made the people feel
that the Paadhukais resembled the Pushpaka VimAnam 
that carried the entourage of Lord Raamachandran
few minutes beforeThvAm poorva-kshaNasTam Pushpakam
iva anvapasyan)...(V.S).
