Meaning

Oh, Pankajaksha! You have lotus-like eyes and have been extolled by Sankara, Indra, and others. In every possible manner, I too would like to offer my services to you.
Oh, Sridhara!  I will carry your Paduka - footwear on my head and will fan you with Camara  - fly flap, in reverence.
Oh, Murahara!  I will hold onto your feet tightly with both my hands in supplication.
Oh, Padmanabha! with delight I offer unto you my humble gifts and appropriate services; kindly accept them as you may choose fit.
