कृत्स्नाभावेन दारिद्र्यान्मया ते भाग्यहीनया ॥ मिथ्यादुग्धमिदं दत्तम्पिष्टमालोड्य वारिणा ॥ २६ ॥

Wanting everything and overwhelmed by poverty I, your unfortunate mother, have given you this improvised milk grinding the fried grains into paste with water.

त्वं मातुलगृहे स्वल्पं पीत्वा स्वादु पयः शृतम् ॥ ज्ञात्वा स्वादु त्वया पीतं तज्जातीयमनुस्मरन् ॥ २७ ॥

You drank a little sweet milk and salt at your maternal uncle’s house. Knowing that it was delicious you drank it and remembering its kind.

दत्तं न पय इत्युक्त्वा रुदन् दुःखीकरोषि माम् ॥ प्रसादेन विना शंभो पयस्तव न विद्यते ॥ २८ ॥

You’re making me sad by crying, saying, “I didn’t give you any milk.” Without your grace, O Lord, there is no milk for you.

पादपंकजयोस्तस्य साम्बस्य सगणस्य च ॥ भक्त्या समर्पितं यत्तत्कारणं सर्वसम्पदाम् ॥ २९ ॥

What is dedicated with devotion at the lotus-like feet of the lord accompanied by Śivā and his Gaṇas is the cause of all riches.

अधुना वसुदोस्माभिर्महादेवो न पूजितः ॥ सकामानां यथाकामं यथोक्तफलदायकः ॥ ३० ॥
