Meaning: (from www.karnatik.com)

The feet ("paadamu") of Venkateshwara are so sacred that they are adorable ("kadigina") even to Brahma and that the very feet ("paadamu") themselves ("taananee") are Brahma.

The Lord's feet have saved the earth ("mopina") from the powerful enemy "Baali" ("bali tala") Chakravarthi when the Lord in the form of Vaamana asked him to fulfill his wish. The adorable feet of the Lord, which brought down the pride of the poisonous snake Kaalinga ("talagaka"). The feet were pressed ("pisakedi") so dearly ("premapu") by the goddess of wealth Lakshmi ("shreesati"), the Lord's wife. These are the feet that have given many boons ("varamosagedi") to rishis ("parama yogulaku") and have made TiruvenkaTagiri in Tirupati the last destination ("tiramani coopina") to attain salvation.
