Metaphor (Uruvagam)

Malar pudhumugam

Compares the beloved's fresh face directly to a blossoming flower.

Monai (Initial Alliteration)

Ilanguyil paaduthu raagam / Isaithida thoonduthu mogam

Both lines start with similar vowel sounds ('Ilanguyil' and 'Isaithida').

Ethugai (Second Letter Rhyme)

Ondrukul ondraana thaegam idhu / Uyirukul naan konda baagam ithu

The second consonant 'nda' ('ndr/yr') creates rhythmic second-letter assonance between the lines.
