Sanskrit:

Māhiṣmati samrajyam
Āsmakam ajayam
Ā-suryacandratārā
Vardathām abhi-vardathām

Dhurbhedyam durnirīkṣyam
Sarva-śatru-bhayankaram
Asmat-caturanga-sainyam
Vijayatām dig vijayatām

Etad-duradhigama-durge
Patate yasya vīkṣaṇam
Yasya śīrṣam khaḍga-chinnam
Patatām raṇabhū-tale.

Māhiṣmati gaganasīme
Virājayet nirantaram
Aśvadhvaya-adityam-anvita

Devanagari script:

माहिष्मति साम्राज्यं
अस्माकं अजेयं
आसूर्यचन्द्रतारा
वर्धतां अभिवर्धतां

दुर्भेद्यं दुर्निरीक्ष्यं
सर्वशत्रु भयंकरं
अस्मत्चतुरंग सैन्यं
विजयतां दिग्विजयतां

एतद्दुरधिगम दुर्गे
पतते यस्य वीक्षणं
यस्य शीर्षं खंड्गच्छिन्नं
पततां रणभूतले

माहिष्मति गगनसीमे
विराजते निरंतरं
अंश्वद्वय आदित्यान्वितस्स्वर्ण
सिंहासन ध्वजं

Telugu script:

మాహిష్మతి సామ్రాజ్యం అస్మాకం అజేయం
ఆసూర్యచంద్రతారా వర్ధతాం అభివర్ధతాం

దుర్భేద్యం దుర్నిరీక్ష్యం సర్వశత్రుభయంకరం
అస్మత్చతురంగసైన్యం విజయతాం దిగ్విజయతాం

ఏతద్దురధిగమ దుర్గే పతతే యస్య వీక్షణం
తస్య శీర్షం ఖడ్గచ్ఛిన్నం పతతాం రణభూతలే

మాహిష్మతి గగనసీమే విరాజతే నిరంతరం
అశ్వద్వయ ఆదిత్యాన్వితస్స్వర్ణ సింహాసన ధ్వజం

English:

Our empire of Mahishmati,
It shall be invincible,
As the sun, moon, and stars,
May it grow and prosper.

Hard to break, hard to grasp,
Causing fear among all its enemies,
Our army of four divisions (infantry, cavalry, chariots, and elephants)
May it be victorious and victorious in all directions.

Upon this unfathomable fort,
Falls (ill) gaze of whomever,
His head severed by a sword,
May it fall down on the battlefield.

At the skyward border of Mahishmati (in the sky),
May shine forever,
Accompanied by the two horses and the sun,
The golden lion-throne banner.

  4. You have a few mistakes here and there. Here's the correct version:

    Sanskrit:

    Māhiṣmatī-sāmrājyam
    asmākam ajeyam
    ā-surya-candra-tārā
    vardhatām abhi-vardhatām.

    Durbhedyam durnirīkṣyam
    sarva-śatru-bhayankaram
    asmat-caturanga-sainyam
    vijayatām digvijayatām.

    Etad-duradhigama-durge
    patate yasya vīkṣaṇam
    tasya śīrṣam khaḍga-chinnam
    patatām raṇabhūtale.

    Māhiṣmatī-gaganasīme
    virājayet nirantaram
    aśvadvaya-āditya-anvita-
    svarṇa-siṃhāsana-dhvajam

    English:

    Empire of Mahishamti
    ours, invincible,
    till the sun, moon and stars (exist)
    may it grow, may it prosper.

    Hard to break, hard to grasp,
    causing fear among all its enemies,
    our four-division army, (infantry, cavalry, chariotry and elephantry)
    may it be victorious, may be it be victorious in all directions.

    Upon this unfathomable fort,
    falls (ill) gaze of whomever,
    his head severed by a sword,
    may fall down on the battlefield.

    At the skyward border of Mahishmati (in the sky)
    may shine forever,
    accompanied by two horse and the sun,
    the golden lion-throne banner.

    2. May God Bless You my dear Samuel You. But for your blog post I wouldn't have felt inspired to add this text. Now I will try to put this as comments on the original YouTube video I mentioned here.

  8. इस संस्कुत गीत को देवनागरी लिपि में प्रस्तुत करता हूं ठीक जैसे मूल तेलुगु चलनचित्र में पाया जाता हैं।

    माहिष्मति साम्राज्यं
    अस्माकं अजेयं
    आसूर्यचन्द्रतारा
    वर्धतां अभिवर्धतां

    दुर्भेद्यं दुर्निरीक्ष्यं
    सर्वशत्रु भयंकरं
    अस्मत्चतुरंग सैन्यं
    विजयतां दिग्विजयतां

    एतद्दुरधिगम दुर्गे
    पतते यस्य वीक्षणं
    यस्य शीर्षं खंड्गच्छिन्नं
    पततां रणभूतले

    माहिष्मति गगनसीमे
    विराजते निरंतरं
    अंश्वद्वय आदित्यान्वितस्स्वर्ण
    सिंहासन ध्वजं

  11. Here is the link of original YouTube Video Juke Box of BAAHUBALI Telugu Version.

    https://youtu.be/s7sSjAwORp0

    Our song is from 22:38 to 24:50

    Courtesy YouTube uploader "Lahari Music | T Series"

    Please like their video because we are using it. It is basic courtesy I think.

    The best way to learn this song is to play it connecting your phone via audio jack to a good multimedia speaker and listen many many times and also sing along once you are sure of the lyrics, the pronunciation and the tune variations. Practice and master it!! It is a great anthem full of power and grandeur. All the best.

  12. In hindi version it is not yasya seersham but tasya seersham. This is the second mistake. Unfortunately I didn't know how to edit a published blog.

  13. A few corrections below:

    माहिष्मती सांराज्यम्।
    अस्माकम् अजेयम्॥
    आसूर्यचन्द्रतारा।
    वर्धताम् अभिवर्धताम्॥

    दुर्भेद्यं दुर्निरीक्ष्यम्।
    सर्वशत्रुभयङ्करम्॥
    अस्मद्चतुरङ्गसैन्यम्।
    विजयतां दिग् विजयताम्॥

    माहिष्मती गगनशीले।
    विराजते निरन्तरम्।
    अश्वध्वयमादित्यात्विकस्।
    स्वर्णसिंहासनध्वजम्॥

    māhiṣmatī sāṃrājyam
    asmākam ajeyam
    āsūryacandratārā
    vardhatām abhivardhatām


    durbhedyaṃ durnirīkṣyam
    sarvaśatruḥ bhayaṅkaram
    asmadcaturaṅgasainyam


    vijayatāṃ dig vijayatām


    māhiṣmatī gaganaśīle
    virājate nirantaram
    aśvadhyamādityātvikas-
    svarṇasiṃhāsanadhvajam

    (1 line translation = 2 lines of lyrics)
    Mahishmati, our invincible empire.
    Like the sun moon and stars may it grow and prosper.


    Difficult to penetrate and see, terrifying to enemies.
    From our army of four divisions may there be victory in all directions.


    Mahishmati heavenly in virtue and perpetually beautiful.
    The flag which bears two horses and a golden throne bursting forth from the sun.
