Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

826. rAmE rAjyam pithuraBhimatham sammatham cha prajAnAm
     mAthA vavrE thadhiha BharathE sathyavAdhI dhadhoU cha
     chinthAthItha: samajani thadhA pAdhukAgryABhiShEkO
     dhurvajnAnasvahrudhayamahO dhaIvamathra pramANam

That Rama should get the kingdom, was the wish of the father, 
Dasharatha. That was also the wish of the people. But then Mother 
Kaikeyi wished to forcefully secure it for her son, Bharata. And to 
that also, the king agreed, he being an adherent to the sworn word. 
But even that could not be effected. Just at that moment, a supreme 
celebration of Anointment and Coronation occured, in the case, 
unexpectedly, of the Paaduka. The inscrutable way of god runs 
supreme in all events.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

Special Notes by V.Sadagopan (V.S):
 
SlOkam 826
 
1) UtthamUr  Swamy's anubhavam: Both DasaraTa and the citizens of 
AyOdhyA agreed to Raama ascending the throne of Raghus. At this time, 
KaikEyi through Her boons wanted BharathA to ascend that throne. 
DasaraTa had to be true to his promise given earlier to KaikEyi and 
agreed reluctantly to her wish. Even when BharathA was  slated for 
the coronation bath, the PaadhukAs of RaamA achieved that honor.
The totally unexpected happened. What a miracle it was to witness? In 
such matters, only the Lord as the knower of all would understand as 
to what is yet to come.  
 
2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The people of the world may think one 
way and the Dhaivam thinks the opposite way and executes what it 
wishes. For instance, DasaraTa wished to elevate Raama to the 
position of the king of AyOdhya. All the citizens had the same wish. 
KaikEyi objected and wanted BharathA should ascend the throne in 
RaamA's place. DasaraTa had to yield to KaikEyi. At that time,
the Paadhukai, which no one even thought about ascended the throne at 
the request of BharathA . Man proposes and God disposes. 
 
3) It was the wish of the father (DasaraTa ) that his eldest son 
(Raama) should succed him ( RaamE rAjyam pithu: abhimatham). That was 
agreeable to the citizens as well ( prajAnAm sammatham). But, KaikEyi 
pressed that the kingdom should go to her son BharathA ( MaathA 
BharathE vavrE ). DasaraTA , who could not break his previous promise 
gave the kingdom to BharathA ( SathyavAdhi dadhou cha). At that 
time , what was inconceivable to many took place (i-e)., the 
PaadhukAs recieved the PattAbhishEkam ( TadhA chinthAtheetha: 
PaadhukAgryAbhishEka: samajani). In this matter (athra) , 
the God with inscrutable mind of its own is the reason ( dhurvij~Ana 
sva hrudhayam dhaivam pramANam )...(V.S).
