Wordplay / Pun

En paattil indha paatil

Clever use of homophones or near-homophones comparing 'Paattu' (song) and 'Paattil' (in the bottle).

Iyaipu (End Rhyme)

Maaya logamidhu / Theyaa dhegamidhu / Oyaa aattamidhu / Meyaa thottamidhu

Repetition of the rhythmic ending '-idhu' across consecutive lines to create a melodic, rapid flow.

Idiom / Cultural Metaphor

Wine rainu adikkudhu / Namma kaattilaa

Adapts the Tamil colloquial idiom 'Namma kaattula mazhai' (it's raining in our forest), which means experiencing abundant luck or prosperity.

Iyaipu (End Rhyme)

Nenjae maarividu / Aaattam aadavidu / Thukkam meera vidu / Inbam yeravidu
