From Edward William Lane, An Arabic-English Lexicon (1863–1893), under the root اوى. Digitised by the Perseus Project (Tufts); Arabic decoded from Perseus's transliteration.

أَوَى اـِلَيْهِ , (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) and أَوَاهُ , (M, Msb, K,) aor. يَأْوِى , (T, S, Msb,) imperative اِيوِ (T,) inf. n. أُوِىُّ , (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) with damm, (K,) of the measure فُعُولٌ , [originally أُوُوىٌ ,] (S,) and اـِوِىٌّ , (Fr, M, K,) with kesr, (K,) and اـِوَا=ءٌ ; (S;) and اليه ↓ أوّى , (M, K,) inf. n. تَأْوِيَةٌ ; (K;) and ↓ تأوّى ; (M, K;) and ↓ ا@أْتَوَى , (thus [more commonly ايءتوى ] accord. to a copy of the M,) or ↓ ا@تَّوَى , (K,) like ا@تَّخَذَ , (TK,) and ↓ اِيتَوَى , (M, K,) both of the measure افتعل ; (TA;) and ↓ ا=وَى is used by some in the same sense, but rejected, in this sense, by several; (Msb;) the pronoun relating to a place of abode; (T, S, M, Msb, K;) He betook himself to it, or repaired to it, for lodging, covert, or refuge; (Mgh;) and [simply] he got him or got himself, betook himself, repaired, or resorted, to it; (T, Mgh;) he returned to it; (M;) he took up his abode in it; he lodged, or abode, or dwelt, in it. (Msb, K.) Hence, in the Kur [xi. 45], سَا=وِى اـِلَى جَبَلٍ يَعْصِمُنِى مِنَ المَا=ءِ [I will betake myself for refuge to a mountain that shall preserve me from the water]. (S.) الأُوِىُّ properly relates to living beings; but is used otherwise, metaphorically. (M.) In the saying of Lebeed, بِصَبُوحِ صَافِيَةٍ وَجَذْبِ كَرِينَةٍ لَهُ اـِبْهَامُهَا ↓ بِمُوَترٍ تَأْتَى [With a morning-potation of clear wine ( خَمْرٍ being understood), and a female singer's straining of her chords, with a stringed instrument to which her thumb returns after the straining], he means تَأْتَوِى لَهُ , of the measure تَفْتَعِلُ , from أَوَيْتُ اـِلَيْهِ signifying عُدْتُ ; the و being changed into ا [written ى ], and the ى , which is the final radical, being elided. (M. [But see another reading near the end of the first paragraph of art. اول .]) أَوَى , aor. as above, inf. n. أُوِىٌ , also signifies He turned away: and hence, [it is said,] اـِذْ أَوَى الفِتْيَةُ اـِلَى الكَهْفِ [When the young men turned away to the cave: though the verb may be here well rendered betook themselves for refuge]. (Har p. 246.) You say also, أَوَيْتُ اـِلَى فُلَانٍ , (A'Obeyd, T,) or لَهُ , (as afterwards written in a copy of the T,) [I betook myself to such a one, or repaired to him, for lodging, covert, or refuge; or] I joined myself, got myself, betook myself, repaired, or resorted, to such a one: and accord. to AHeyth, أَوَيْتُ فُلَانًا signifies the same; but he did not know أَوَيْتُ to be syn. with ا=وَيْتُ as explained below. (T.) And أَوَى اـِلَى ا@للّٰهِ He returned unto God. (TA, from a trad.) ― -b2- أَوَى said of a wound: see 5. -A2- See also 4, in seven places. -A3- أَوَى لَهُ , (T, S, M, Mgh, K,) like رَوَى , (K, TA,) but it would have been more explicit if the author of the K had said like رَمَى , (TA,) [as is shown by the false reading in the CK, أوِىَ لَهُ كَرَوِىّ ,] aor. يَأوِى , (T, S, Mgh,) inf. n. أَوْيَةٌ (S, K) and اـِيَّةٌ , (S, Mgh, K,) with kesr, (TA,) [originally اـِوْيَةٌ ,] the و being changed into ى because of the kesreh before it, (S,) or because combined with ى and preceded by sukoon [a mistake for “kesreh”], (IB as cited in the TA,) [in a copy of the T written ايَّة , and in a copy of the M and in the CK اَيَّة ,] and مَأْوِيَةٌ , (S, M, K,) without teshdeed, (S, TA,) [in my copy of the Mgh written with tesh-deed,] and مَأْوَاهٌ , (S, M, K,) He compassionated him; felt compassion, or pity, for him; (T, S, M, Mgh, K;) as also ↓ ايءتوى , (T, K,) of the measure افتعل . (TA.) In using the imperative form, you say, اِوِ لَهُ , [unless this be a mistranscription for اِيوِ لَهُ ,] meaning Be thou compassionate to him. (T, TA.)

[Praise be to God who hath sufficed us and] hath brought us to a place of abode for us, and not made us to be scattered like the beasts. (TA.) AHeyth disallowed ↓ أَوَيْتُ as syn. with ا=وَيْتُ ; but it is correct. (T.) It is said in a form of divorce, ↓ لَا يَأْوِينِى وَاـِيَّاكِ بَيْتٌ [A house, or tent, shall not lodge, or comprise, me with thee]. (Mgh.) And among other instances, is the saying of the Prophet, (T,) الضَّالَّةٌ اـلَّا ضَالٌّ ↓ لَا يَأْوِى [No one will harbour the stray beast but a person straying from the right course of conduct]. (T, Mgh.) And his saying, الجَرِينُ ↓ لَا قَطْعَ فِى ثَمَرٍ حَتَّى يَأْوِيِه i. e. [There shall be no cutting off of the hand in the case of stealing fruit] unless the place where the fruit is dried contain it [at the time of the stealing thereof]. (TA.) ― -b2- Hence, اـِيوَا=ءُ خَشَبِ الفَحْمِ The throwing of dust, or earth, upon the wood of which charcoal is made, and covering it therewith. (Mgh.) -A2- See also 1, first sentence.

And in like manner one says of other things. (M.) [Thus,] one says, تَأَوَّتِ الخَيْلُ The horses drew, or gathered, themselves together: and تأوّى النَّاسُ The men did so. (T.) You say also, of a wound, ↓ تا=وى , and ↓ أَوَى , meaning It drew together, for healing; and so تا=زى , and أَزَى : so in the Nawádir el-Aaráb. (T.) -A2- One may also say, يَتَأَوَّى , without saying it with ه , [i. e. يَتَأَوَّهُ ,] meaning He says أَوْهِ . (Fr and T in art. او .) [See also 2; and see art. اوه .]
