Sri:

SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

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

709. prathImasthvAm padhAvani! BhagavathO rangavasathE:
     GhanIBhUthAmithTham padhakamalamADhvIpariNathim
     sPhurantha: paryanthE madhagarimanispandhamaDhupa-
     prasakthim yathraIthE vidhaDhathi mahAnIlamaNya:

Oh Paaduka! You are perhaps what was frozen, and evolved into You, 
from the honey flowing from the lotuses of the Feet. The blue stones 
are but the bees hovering on the contents of the honey.

Namo Narayana,

SriMuralidhara Dasan

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

SlOkam 709

1) UtthamUr  Swamy's anubhavam:Oh PaadhukE! We believe that
You are the solidified honey , which originated from the lotus 
feet of Your Lord. We also believe that Your rows of great
sapphires are the immobile bluish-black bees drunk with
that honey .  

2) SrImath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is that
the appearance of Swamy  NammAzhwAr in His role as the Paadhukai
of the Lord is like the embodiment of his Bhakthi for the Lord.
The paasurams blessed by Swamy NammazhwAr are outpourings
of bhakthi in a state of total immersion in Bhagavath
GuNAnubhavam.Those bhkathAs , who have true comprehension 
of the meanings of Swamy NammAzhwAr's (ShaThAri Soory's) 
paasurams are transported into  a state of bliss .  

3)Oh PaadhukE! We assess You as the solidified honey
that emanated from the lotus feet of SrIRanganAthan
( ThvAm ittham chanIbhUthAm RangavasathE: padha
kamala mAdhvee parNathim pratheema:). The sapphires 
on You are like the proud bees consuming that lotus
honey , while being motionless ( Yathra paryanthe
sphurantha: yEthE mahAneelAmaNya: nispandha madhupa
prasakthim vidhadathi)...(V.S).
