There are Tamil translations of Venkatesa Suprabhatham as well as

Vishnu Sahasranamam by Prof. Parthasarathy (Musicologist)

of Madras University. Both have been rendered by M.S.Subbalakmi.

The meters are followed religiously. The words are well chosen

and sound quite good.

The language used is Modern Sanskritized common usage Tamil.

Not Azhvaar Tamil.
