A.P Formation Day

November 1st is Andhra Pradesh formation day. So here goes a crash course in history about the state
Andhra Pradesh, is the fourth largest state in India by area. It is also called the ‘Rice Bowl of India’ for the extensive area involved in farming. Hyderabad is the capital of Andhra Pradesh. The state is divided into three regions, Telangana, Costa and Rayalseema. After India gained Independence from the British Empire, the Nizam of Hyderabad wanted Hyderabad to remain under his power but was later forced to give up arms and become a part of India. I am especially proud since my grand parents were involved in the struggle to fight against the Nizam and were also imprisoned for their actions.

Andhra Pradesh was the first state to be formed on the basis of language due to the efforts of Amarajeevi Potti Sriramulu.



AmaraJeevi Potti Sriramulu
 On 1st November 1956, Andhra State merged with the Telangana region of Hyderabad State to form the state of Andhra Pradesh, which would be mainly Telugu-speaking. Hyderabad, the former capital of the Hyderabad State, was made the capital of the new state Andhra Pradesh.

Be proud of your heritage, Be proud of where you’ve come from and Never forget what our ancestors did for us.

 
Jai Telugu-Talli

 Maa Telugu Thalliki is the official song of the state Andhra Pradesh, India. It was written by Sri Sankarambadi Sundaraachari for the Telugu movie Deena Bandhu (1942) starring Chittor V. Nagaiah. The song gained popularity and was ultimately made the official song of Andhra Pradesh.

This song in the voice of Tanguturi Suryakumari is incorporated into the recent political film Leader (2010) directed by Sekhar Kammula.

Lyrics:

 maa telugu thalliki mallepoodanda,


maa kannathalliki mangalarathulu,

kadupulo bangaru kanuchoopulo karuna,

chirunavvulo sirilu dorlinchu mathalli.

galagalaa godaari kadilipothuntenu

birabiraakrishnamma paruguliduthuntenu

bangaaru pantalae panduthayee

muripaala muthyalu doraulutai.

amaravathinagara apuroopa shilpaalu

thyagayya gonthulo thaaraadu naadhaalu

thikkayya kalamulo thiyyamdanalu

nithyamai nikhilamai nilachi vundedaaka

rudramma bhujashakthi mallamma pathibhakthi

thimmarasu dheeyukthi,krishnarayala keerthi

maa chevulu ringumani maarumrogedaaka

nee paatalae paaduthaam, nee aatalae aadutham

jai telugu thalli, jai telugu thalli......


 Original song:

మా తెలుగు తల్లికి మల్లెపూదండ,

మా కన్నతల్లికి మంగళారతులు,

కడుపులో బంగారు కనుచూపులో కరుణ,

చిరునవ్వులో సిరులు దొరలించు మాతల్లి.

గలగలా గోదారి కదలిపోతుంటేను

బిరాబిరాక్రిష్ణమ్మ పరుగులిడుతుంటేను

బంగారు పంటలే పండుతాయీ

మురిపాల ముత్యాలు దొరులుతాయి.

అమరావతినగర అపురూప శిల్పాలు
త్యాగయ్య గొంతులో తారాడు నాదాలు

తిక్కయ్య కలములొ తియ్యందనాలు

నిత్యమై నిఖిలమై నిలచి వుండేదాకా

రుద్రమ్మ భుజశక్తి మల్లమ్మ పతిభక్తి

తిమ్మరసు ధీయుక్తి, కృష్ణరాయల కీర్తి

మా చెవులు రింగుమని మారుమ్రోగేదాక

నీపాటలే పాడుతాం ,నీ ఆటలే ఆడుతాం

జై తెలుగు తల్లి ,జై తెలుగు తల్లి ......
