Iyaibu (Rhyming Endings)
“Pirappaaga sirappaaga / Neruppaaga oligindra”
The repetition of the '-aaga' suffix across consecutive lines creates a rhythmic, musical flow known as Iyaibu in Tamil poetry.

Repetition of the initial sound 'Thi-' in 'Thirakkatha' and 'Thirakkindra' establishes an agreeable phonetic rhythm at the start of the song.
