Courtesy:Sri.K.V.Anantha narayanan

अग्रे पश्यामि तेजोनिबिडतरकळायावलीलोभनीयं
पीयूषाप्लवितोहम् तदनु तदुदरे दिव्यकैशोरवेषं।
तारुण्यारंभरम्यं परमसुखरसास्वादिरोमञ्चिताङ्गै-
रावीतं नारदाद्यैर्विलसदुपनिषद्सुन्दरीमण्डलैश्च॥
श्रीमन्नारयणीयं १००-१
agre paśyāmi tejonibiḍatarakaḻāyāvalīlobhanīyaṁ
pīyūṣāplavitoham tadanu tadudare divyakaiśoraveṣaṁ|
tāruṇyāraṁbharamyaṁ paramasukharasāsvādiromañcitāṅgai-
rāvītaṁ nāradādyairvilasadupaniṣadsundarīmaṇḍalaiśca||

The consummation of the penance of Shree Melpathur Narayana Bhattathiri in the concluding canto of Narayaneeyam
"When the Sanctum of Sri Guruvayurappan is opened in the morning, 
I see in my front and very bright blue aura taking shape as a heavenly child who is entering into adolescence, 
He is surrounded by ascetics like Narada 
and the upanishads themselves standing before Him in the shape of heavenly beauties,
all in an ecstatic trance with raised hair with goose pimples. In this Divine presence, 
I am filled with unexplainable and the Supreme ambrosia of summit of happiness ".

It took a lifetime of service and devotion for the great Bhattathiri to see that Darling Krishna in this form...
After this nothing else is real in life.
On this Vishu Morning may that divine robber of our hearts appear before us in all his splendour.
(Narayaneeyam cannot be translated or interpreted...it can only be experienced)
