Balripu kaachina padamu.
C 2. Parama yogulaku pari pari vidamula
Varamosageti nee padamu
Thiruvenkatagiri sthiramani choopina
Parama padamu nee padamu.
This is the foot washed by Brahma. the feet are universal truth by themselves Brahmam.
You measured with your foot the entire earth(beautiful); you kept one foot on Bali's head with least effort one foot  through the sky's reached the upper worlds. these feet also protected Lord Indra.
These feet fulfill a variety of wishes of great sages.(parama yogis) they proclaim that thiruvenkatam is paramapada.

Oh Venkatesa, you have taken abode on Seshaachala hill in the hearts of yogis, one needs myriad eyes to see your glorious roopa. all praise you and say you are the highest of the deities. Your mere darshan will ensure salvation to those devoted to you. I do not know what meritorious deeds that i have that has earned me this opportunity to drink my fill of the nectar of thy sweet name and through them reach your divine effulgent feet.
R Gowlipanthu T Adi
P Thera Theeyaga raadha?
Loni tirupati Venkataramana! mathsaramanu.
A P Paramapurusha! dharmadhi Mokshamula
Paaradholu chunnadhi Naaloni!
C 1 Matsayamu yaakaligoni gaalamuchae
Magnamaina reethi Nunnadhi;
Achchamaina deepa Sannidhini
Marugadabadi Cherachinattunnadhi;

C 3 Vaaguramani Theliyaka Mrigaganamulu
Vachchi thagulu reethi Nunnudhi
Vegamae Neemathamu Nanusarinchina
Thyagarajanutha! Madamatsaramanu.
Oh Lord of thirupati, Oh Venkataramana please remove the screen of anger, arrogance, jealously, with which i am afflicted which are denying me dharma, artha Purusharthas including Moksha.
As a result of this screen in me i am like the fish which get caught by grasping the bait in the fish angle. this screen is blinding me even from jnana. My pitiable situation is similar to that of a diner getting stuck with a fly in his throat while eating. this screen is creating havoc in me which is akin to the situation where a person offering prayers to God allows his mind to wander over other places. this screen is getting me caught in the web of evil, even as ignorant beast get caught unawares in the hunters net. I thyagaraja pray you remove this veil which is blinding me from seeing the truth.
Purandaradasa
R Malayamarutham T adi
P Smaranae onde salade
Govindana nama onde salade
A P Paramapurusha nannu nera nambidavarige

C Sakala theerthayathreyu madidanta
Nikhila punyada phalavu
Bhakthi purvakavagi bidadanu dina dalli
Prakata purandharavittalana namada.
Will it not suffice if i think only of you? Will it not suffice if i utter the name GOVINDA?  those who believe in You as the Paramapurusha are relieved of their great sufferings immediately without any delay. Purandaradasa says that by uttering your name with devotion one can obtain the merit of visiting holy pilgrim centers.
R Thodi T Rupakam
P Ninnanodi dhanyanadeno He Srinivasa!
A P Pakshivahana Lakshmiramana
Lakshya vittu nodo pandu. Paksha sarva
daithya siksha rakshisenna kamalaksha
C Desa desa thiriginanu asebaddhanade
swamy Dasanenisi enna jagadesa kaayo
Vasudeva Kanthu janaka kelo enna
antharanga dasa ennu anthara villade
pali siya hanthakari Purandara vittalana!
OhSrinivasa! i am indeed blessed to have seen you. Oh Lakshminatha, Garuda Vahana, vanquisher of asuras, friend of Pandavas, oh lotus eyed Srinivasa! Please bless me. Save this sinner who is wandering from place to place and is lost in enjoying worldly pleasures. please make me your abject slave and devotee. Oh sreenivasa you have understood my prayers and have answered them by saving me granting salvation.
Papanasam Sivam

C Jagam Pugazhum ezhumalai mayavanae
Thirumagal Alarmel Mangai manalane

Thiruvadi kabhayam abhayamayya
Jaya sreenivasa!
Oh srinivasa1 Oh lord of Thiruvenkatam! Oh Jaya Govindaa! Oh Mukunda! Oh Anantha! You are known as unfailing support of the weak. You could not have seen any one more helpless and weak like me.
Oh Lord of seven hills praised by the world. You are the consort of Alarmel Mangai thaayar. Oh Jagganatha Oh Lord adorned with conch and discuss I salute your divine feet.
Akhila Bhuvana janma sthema Bhangaathi Leelae
Vinatha Vividha Bhootha Vraatha
Rakshaika Deekshae Sruthi
Sirasi Videeptae Brahmani
Srinivasae Bhavathu mama 
Parasmin Se Mushee Bakthi roopa.
Ramanuja says may my knowledge assume the form of loving devotion for Lord Srinivasa. who is the Supreme Brahman and Who is the shining crown of the Vedas. He is the Upanishad himself and who has as his sportive activity the task of creation, sustenance and destruction and who has taken upon Himself the unfailing supreme task of protecting whoever surrenders before Him.
Lofty explanations have been given for the above Thirumangai alwar has sung 52 verses in praise of Venkatachalpathi Nammalwar has sung 50 verses. In all  ten alwars have sung in praise of the lord of Tirumala.
