Poetic devices

Iyaipu (End Rhyme)

“Vannam neeya / Kangal neeya”

The repetition of 'neeya' at the end of consecutive lines creates a harmonious rhyming structure (Iyaipu).

Ethugai (Second Letter Assonance)

“Kanavin uyiraga / Ninaivin sumaiyaga”

The second letter consonant 'na' (ன) matches between 'Kanavin' and 'Ninaivin'.

Muran (Antithesis)

“Poiyana ulagathil / Neeyum naanum thaan unmaiyo”

Contrasts the concept of 'Poiyana' (false/illusory world) with 'Unmaiyo' (truth/reality).

Metaphor

“Kanavin uyiraga / Ninaivin sumaiyaga”

Metaphorically frames the beloved as the very soul of dreams and the weight of memories.
