In plain words

The poet, to the Lord: Just as you hold these two hills, Tirumāliruñcōlai, called the Hill, and Vēṅkaṭam, as places you love to dwell, so you hold the temple of my heart as your dwelling too; knowing this, I pray: do not give up your first, makeshift temple in the flood [the milk ocean].
