Edesamegina Endukalidina (Telugu: ఏ దేశమేగినా ఎందుకాలిడినా) is patriotic poem in Telugu written by Rayaprolu Subba Rao.[1] It is also known as "Janmabhumi."
The poem is a perennial favourite in Andhra Pradesh and among the Telugu diaspora.[2][1] It was popular for public events in the pre-Independence Andhra region.
Subba Rao coined the term "amalina srngara" to refer to patriotic love for one's "country, language, and culture."[1]
