Meaning--May my sincere and faithful saranagathi/surrender at the lotus like feet of Bhagvan be continuous and never ending -A Saranagathi performed with the longing to obtain the privelege of eternal service to Him ,which is of the nature of me finding sole joy in rendering all forms of service appropriate to all His states and situations .A longing which is stimulated by unlimited and unsurpassed love arising from the expectation of boundless and unsurpassed delight in the , continuous ,eternal, complete and extremely pure enjoyment of Bhagvan , and seeks no other gain and is the result of Parabhakthi, Parajnana and Paramabhakthi exclusively and eternally displayed towards the two lotus like feet of Bhagvan which are the supreme goal to be desired.
Note --Sudarshana suri the contemporary of Sri Desikan says Parabhakthi means the intense longing to have the vision of Bhagvan .Parajananam means the actual vision of Lord.Parama Bhakthi means intense longing ,consequent of Prajanam to have the continuous enjoyment of Bhagvan .All these three are the stages in ripening and perfection of Bhakthi

Meaning-- Though you are lacking in all those requisites which are enjoined as the means of attaining such service of mine though you are overcome by countless sins which stand in the way of obtaining that service,
though you are guilty of innumerable offences against me
though you are guilty of innumerable offences against my devotees
though you are guilty of innumerable offences of an unpardonable nature ,
though your inner nature is deluded by perverse conceit continuing from beginningless Time,which is the effect and the cause of those offences
though you are bound by perverse mental impressions which have been from beginningless Time which are the effect and the cause of the offences and the conceit ,
though you are bound by the form of Prakriti which is conducive to them
though you are beset by obstacles standing in the way of of exclusive and ever lasting Para bhakthi, Parajgyana and Parama bhakthi towards my two lotus like feet ---obstacles which are of the nature of the contraction of true knowledge owing to the experience of pleasures and pains due to the existence of body , to animals and the gods , from the experiences of their causes and likewise from the experience of other sense objects fit to be discarded --since you have uttered the Dvaya , whatever may be the manner [of the utterance], you will solely as the result of my compassion get rid of, without any exception , all obstacles as well as their causes that stand in the way of exclusive and ever lasting Parabhakthi, Parajgyana and Parama bhakthi towards my two lotus like feet.
And by my grace alone , you will have a vision , just as they are , of my essential nature [swarupa] of my form, of my attributes,, of the Nithyavibhuti [Vaikunta ] and Lilavibhuti [this world] and all the accompaniments thereof in all their fullness, You will then realise by direct vision that your essential nature consists in being controlled by me and in being solely and exclusively devoted to my service .
With the sole and exclusive enjoyment of me, with the sole and exclusive joy of serving me with the full , continuous, eternal,distinct,infinite and unequalled joy of experiencing me without any other in view , you shall become my eternal servant finding your sole delight in rendering all forms of service without any exception and appropriate to all states and situations and take delight in the infinite and unsurpassed joy of such an experience of Me.
