Adukkuthodar (Repetition for Emphasis)

Thedi thedi thooram pogiren

Hyperbole (Uyarvu Navitchi Ani)

Nee azhuthaal / Aruthalaai boomiyilae por thoduppen

The line dramatically exaggerates waging war against the earth just to comfort the beloved if they cry, conveying deep protective affection.

Monai & Edhugai (Alliteration and Rhyme)

Ennakenaway nee piranthaai / Unnakenaway kaathiruppen

Matching sound structures between 'Ennakenaway' and 'Unnakenaway' create a rhythmic and harmonic cadence.

Metaphor

Kolam varaiyum koonthal pidithu

Describing hair tresses as drawing patterns ('kolam') metaphorically compares the flowing elegance of hair to art.
