### SB 1.6.6

> एकात्मजा मे जननी योषिन्मूढा च किङ्करी ।\
> मय्यात्मजेऽनन्यगतौ चक्रे स्नेहानुबन्धनम् ॥६॥

> ekātmajā me jananī\
> yoṣin mūḍhā ca kiṅkarī\
> mayy ātmaje 'nanya-gatau\
> cakre snehānubandhanam

*eka-ātmajā*—having only one son; *me*—my; *jananī*—mother; *yoṣit*—woman by class; *mūḍhā*—foolish; *ca*—and; *kiṅkarī*—maidservant; *mayi*—unto me; *ātmaje*—being her offspring; *ananya-gatau*—one who has no alternative for protection; *cakre*—did it; *sneha-anubandhanam*—tied by affectionate bondage.

**I was the only son of my mother, who was not only a simple woman but was a maidservant as well. Since I was her only offspring, she had no other alternative for protection: she bound me with the tie of affection.**
