Babhru is Golden color, that you can see at dawn. Just before the sunrise, the sky turns to ARUNA (Reddish), followed by a mild golden (Babhru). This is from Sri Rudhra Prashnam.

BABHRU-VAHANA Son of Arjuna by his wife Chitrangadi. He was adopted as the son of his maternal grandfather, and reigned at Manipura as his successor. He dwelt there in a palace of great splendour, surrounded with wealth and signs of power. When Arjuna went to Manipura with the horse intended for the Aswa-medha, there was a quarrel between Arjuna and King Babhru-vahana, and the latter killed his father with an arrow. Repenting of his deed, he determined to kill himself, but he obtained from his stepmother, the Naga princess Ulupi, a gem which restored Arjuna to life. He returned with his father to Hastinapura. The description of this combat has been translated from the Maha-bharata by Troyer in his Raja Tarangini, tome i. p. 578.
