Suprabhatam, ( Telugu: సూప్రభాతమ )literally an auspicious dawn, is a name given to Sanskrit hymns recited in the morning to awaken the Lord.
The most famous is the Sri Venkatesa Suprabhatam recited at Tirupati to awaken Lord Balaji. The rendition by M.S. Subbulakshmi can be heard in many Kannada, Tamil & Telugu houses each morning.
It was composed around A.D. 1500 by Sri Prativadi Bhayankaram Annan Swami, a disciple of Sri Manavala Mamuni, who also composed Sri Ranganatha Suprabhatam. Sri Venkatesa Suprabhatam consists of four parts: Suprabhatam, Sri Venkatesa Stothram, Prapatti, and Mangalasasanam.
