upavāsaiśca yōgaiśca bahubhiśca pariśramaiḥ.

duḥkhaṅ saṅvardhitō mōghaṅ tvaṅ hi durgatayā mayā৷৷2.20.48৷৷

Translation

tvam you, durgatayā mayā by me so unfortunate, upavāsaiśca through fasts, yōgaiśca through meditation, bahubhiḥ many, pariśramaiśca with efforts, duḥkham with difficulty, mōgham in vain, saṅvardhitaḥ have been brought up.

Through meditation, through fasts and with a great deal of efforts you have been brought up by this luckless (mother). But alas! this is all in vain.
