Oh dear, you captured my soul
Female: Hey...
With the hammer of a kiss
You drove a nail into my brain
புயல் வந்து கேள்வி கேட்டால்
பூஞ்சோலை பேசாது
I said it was cold
You gave your tresses

I said there was frost
You gave your chest

Poetic devices
Metaphor (Uvamai / Uruvagathal)
“Istanbul rajakumari / Shrajahvin rajakumara”

Analogy (Uvamai)
“Vazhodu uraiyaipol servom / Vazhvodu seriyaga”
The male and female leads compare their union to a sword returning perfectly into its matching scabbard.
Hyperbole (Uyarvu Navitchi)
“Muthathin suthiyal kondu / Moolaikul aani adithaai”
Describing a kiss as a hammer driving a nail directly into the brain exaggerates the intense physical effect of intimate affection.

“Kulir endren / Koonthal koduthaai”
Use of matching head and second letters across adjacent words and lines (e.g., Kulir / Koonthal, Pani / Maarbu).
