ஓங்கி உலகளந்த உத்தமன் பேர்பாடி
நாங்கள் நம் பாவைக்குச் சாற்றி நீராடினால்
தீங்கின்றி நாடெல்லாம் திங்கள் மும்மாரி பெய்து
ஓங்கு பெறும்செந் நெல்ஊடு கயலுகளப்
பூங்குவளைப் போதில் பொறி வண்டு கண் படுப்பத்
தேங்காதே புக்கிருந்து சீர்த்த முலைபற்றி
வாங்க* குடம் நிறைக்கும் வள்ளல் பெரும் பசுக்கள்
நீங்காத செல்வம் நிறைந்தேலோர் எம்பாவாய்.

Ongi (take up a large form)
This refers to the altruistic natue of Sri Vámana. Likewise, it refers to the even more altruistic Sri Rámánuja who cast aside many of the prevelant disparities and ordered that the preceptors hence forward preach to those who desire and not just those you appease you sufficiently.

ulagaLandha (measured the worlds)
To measure means to establish dominion over objects.

uththaman (elevated person)
Those who will persevere for selfless causes and in the process not worry about the corrosive effect that they indirectly inflict upon themselves. This is apparent in Thirukkoshtiyur when he announced from atop the Ashtanga Vimana that he can help throw open the gateway to the eternal heavens.

2. chit, achit, Ishwara thathva-trayam

In the first case, the rains can mean the unequivocal stance of the Visishtadvaitha Srivaishnava Siddhantham - Emperumánár Darshanam, which quell the fears of the Vedás. In the second case, the rains are the strains that relieve the world of its three-fold suffering.

Ongu peRum senN nel (salubrious, large alabaster rice grains)

(b) those with acute devotion ripened with vast knowledge

kayal (fish)
Like the fish which cannot sustain itself without water, we shall cease to sustain if we were separated from Swami Ramanuja. We have for our sustenance, nourishment and indulgence the glories of Sri Ramanuja.

ugaLa (to frolic)
This refers to the lilt that people belinging to the fold of Swami Ramanuja seem to exhibit. It is the jovial way in which they conduct their business knowing well that the weeds affecting the fertile Vedás have been done away with by the efforts of Swami Ramanuja.

seerththa mulai (full udders)

kudam niRaikkum (filling pots to the brim)
to fill the hearts of the disciples with love for the Lord

vaLLal perum pasukkaL(generous, large cows)
It refers to our glorious preceptors. Cows are allegorical to those like Nammázhwár who preached from where they were.
Large cows are those who took it upon themselves to travel to where their disciples might be found and blessed them with knowledge.
Generous and Large cows are those who underwent empathic agony on behalf of us materialistic beings and felt that they would be unable to sustain themselves and went on to explain the great truths of the world and helped deliver us and in the process sustained themselves.
