A yard is a spar on a mast from which sails are set. It may be constructed of timber or steel or from more modern materials like aluminium or carbon fibre. Although some types of fore and aft rigs have yards, the term is usually used to describe the horizontal spars used on square rigged sails. In addition, for some decades after square sails were generally dispensed with, some yards were retained for deploying wireless (radio) aerials and signal flags.
Note that these terms refer to stretches of the same spar, not to separate component parts.
The yard can rotate around the mast to allow the direction of the vessel to be changed relative to the wind. When running directly downwind the yards are 'squared', pointing perpendicular to the ship's centre line. As the ship is steered closer to the wind the yards are braced round using the braces. When further rotation is obstructed by other bits of rigging (typically the shrouds), the yard is said to be braced "hard round" or "sharp up", as in "sharp up to port". This angle (normally about 60 degrees) limits how close to the wind a square rigged ship can sail.

I saw her the first time on the train
My first line was shhhhhhhhhhhhhhit I had nothing to
She made me quiet, I would just stay silent
Watching her all the way home but trying to hide it
She was sitting the opposite of me
I glanced at the glass window, reflection showed she´s
also watching me
My thoughts saying: ”Shit man, say something”, I know,
”This is bad!”, I know!, ”She´s looking at you, you
couldn´t miss that!!”
I thought of a line sounding like rhyme, all of a
sudden she speaks: ”So where you going?” , I´m going
home. ”Yeah, me too...”, You´ve had sort of a long
night, right? ”Yeah, you know you seem kinda nice”, and
I replied: You too, you know if you going home then I
could walk you
Or maybe you need someone to talk to
Them other guys is acting all rude
boring you, stalking you
but not me, the more of you I see the more I´m adoring
you.
Now it´s about time to let you know
Just what you mean to me
And I know that in time you will see
Just what you mean to me
We got off at the same stop and we got to talking
A dark night, some raindrops when we got to walking
She´s one of a kind, I´m guessing her name is Sunshine
´cos the rain stopped pouring when we stopped at her
door and she goes: ”Listen, I don´t feel like going
home, but I work early tomorrow, here´s the number to
my phone”. I said: Cool, I´ll call you, now when can I
see you? She smiled, a little gleam in her eyes, said:
”Real soon”
Couple a days passed, dating this girl´s laid back
She had a great laugh, a great ass, amazing!
Now we walk the same path, smoke the same grass and we
talk the same trash
Hope this thing lasts.
Now it´s about time to let you know
Just what you mean to me
And I know that in time you will see
Just what you mean to me
Now let me tell you about this girl
For her body and soul I got serious thirst
First time in a long time I speak serious words
She had the right mentality type, down to earth
She knows a brown-eyed boy needs a blue-eyed girl
She might seem like the girl next door
but there´s a whole lot more to it, she be a whole
world to explore
I´m telling you
I live in a cold city with terrible grey skies, but
nowadays seems I got a better view
She knows better than to be scared I be running away,
running astray come the rain and cold weather
Share my soul with her rich or poor with her
Don´t need no glitter
I can see myself growing old with her
I can make hours pass just watching her feminine form,
she got the shape of an hour
glass
we soul mates
She make my world rotate
got it on lock like embassy gates
I remember the day when we met on that same train
That rainy day when our nights out been going the same
Now the main thing was we thinking the same thing
trying to find something to say like: If you heading
home then I could walk you
Or maybe you need someone to talk to
Them other guys is acting all rude
stalking you, boring you
but not me, the more of you I see the more I need more
of YOU.
Now it´s about time to let you know
Just what you mean to me
And I know that in time you will see
