Like a human being who lacks spiritual knowledge and is too attached to the members of his family, the elephant, being illusioned by the external energy of Kṛṣṇa, had his wives and children bathe and drink the water. Indeed, he raised water from the lake with his trunk and sprayed it over them. He did not mind the hard labor involved in this endeavor.
Srimad Bhagavata Purana

मूल श्लोकः
स्वपुष्करेणोद्धृतशीकराम्बुभि- र्निपाययन् संस्नपयन् यथा गृही । घृणी करेणुः कलभांश्च दुर्मदो नाचष्ट कृच्छ्रं कृपणोऽजमायया
svapuṣkareṇoddhṛtaśīkarāmbubhi- rnipāyayan saṃsnapayan yathā gṛhī | ghṛṇī kareṇuḥ kalabhāṃśca durmado nācaṣṭa kṛcchraṃ kṛpaṇo'jamāyayā
