"ellAm Ariyattil amaittu kavi sheidIram
ArukkuNDu umakkE avvIram kunjaradAsan shonnEn idu sharadam"

If you need the meaning here it is:

Ko'teeshwara Iyer praises Muththuswamy Dheekshithar by telling that only the latter had the ability to make saahithyams in Aariyam (Sanskrit/a poetic style) using rAga gambhIram, ati udAra kavi madhuram, prAsa vAkkurum, caturam, cauka madhyama vivaram, and vEdAgama sAram (some one knowing the exact meanings of these attributes may help).

Prashant,
word by word meaning:

ellAm: all of it
Ariyaththil: in sanskrit
amaiththu: having composed
kavi: can mean either you the poet or a poem
SeidIRAm: have created
Arukku uNDu: who else has it (this talent)
umakkE: you alone have
avvIram: that strength, ability!
kunjara dAsan SonnEn: me, kunjaradAsan says it
idu Saradam: this is the truth

Thank you arasi for the meanings. BTW is it 'SAram' or 'Saradam'?

Saradam: uNmai (truth).
