Meaning: (From T.K. Govinda Rao's book)
I mediate ("bhavaye") on the lord RANGANAYAKA, who is with goddess RANGANAYAKI
("Sametam")
He is the father ("tata") of Cupid ("angaja") and is the infinite("mananta") one.
He transcends ("matitim") everything ("anta").
He is the eternal one ("satatam") who is praised ("nutham") by the immortal ones ("amara") like
Indra ("ajendra").
He has the great bird GARUDA ("uttunga vihangam") for the mount ("turangam") and his eyes
("paangam") shower compassion ("kripa")
He is the dear one of RAMAA ("ramaantarangam").
His divine ("divyavimanam") VIMANA is the form ("aakaara") of PRANAVA("pranava").
He is adored ("abhimanam") by devotees ("bhakta") like PRAHLADA.
VISVAKSENA occupies ("samana") the foremost place as lord GANAPATI does for PARAMASIVA.
His army ("senam") consists of elephants ("gaja"), horses ("turaga") and infantry ("padadi").
He is worshipped ("aradhanam") by Lord RAGHAVA who was born in the solar dynasty ("dinamani
kula").
He is my source ("mamaka videha"), for the attainment (" sadhanam") of salvation.("mukthi")
His abode ("sadhanam") is bedecked with gems ("manimaya").
His face ("vadhanam") resembles that of a moon("shashi") and he rests ("sayanam") on a serpent
couch ("phanipati").
His eyes ("nayanam") are like lotus ("padma"). He is worshipped by VIBHISANA (" vibhishanam")
who has countless good virtues ("aganita suguna ganata").
He is adorned ("vibhushanam") with inestimable ("ghanatara") KAUSTUBHA gem ("mani").
His ardent devotees ("gunijana krta") recite ("paaraayanam") VEDAs constantly.
