"smarakAntam " would be derived as "smara iva kAnta" , one of the many types of "samAsa-s" (compound words) possible in Sanskrit.
nAgArAti vareNyaturaN^gaM - one who has the best among the enemies of the snakes, ie Garuda as a vehicle
nAradAdi h.rdayAmbujabh.rN^gam - who is a honeybee hovering in the heart-lotus of rishis like Narasa
bhogIndrAdbhutama~ncam - who has for a bed, the wonderful snake-king Adisesha
abhaN^gaM - who has no shortfalls
pUrNashobhapada niss.rtagaN^gam - one from whose effulgent feet flows the Ganga
syAnandUrapurAmaladIpaM - who is the spotless light of Tiruvanantapuram
sArasAkSham - who is lotus-eyed
aghashAlidurApam - who is unattainable to the sinful
bhAnushashAN^kad.rshaM - whose eyes are the sun and moon
vasudhApaM - who is the protector of the world
padmanAbham - who bears a lotus on his navel
avitAryasudhApam - ( not sure)
Hope this helps
