And he who lives in Sri Ranga ,
Does not have a beginning or end.

Goda sthuthi priya sri bhu-ramana (Adishesha)

The Lord of the world, whose feet are worshipped by Vedas,
The attractor of the world who likes prayers of Andal.

Seshavathara jagadoddhara vi—
Sesha dhanur masa parama pada dwara
Vedantha deshika kavitha sara
Ramanuja sri Krishna dasa jana vanditha (Adishesha)

The one who was born as Sesha and one who lifted the earth,
Specially opens the door of heaven in the month of Dhanu*,
And he is the essence of the poems of Vedantha Desika,
And is saluted by Ramanuja, Krishnadasa and his people.
*December-January.
