ازربّ , inf. n. اِزْرِبَابٌ , It (a plant, or herb,) became yellow, or red, while having in it greenness. (K, TA.)

زَرْبٌ A place of entrance. (AA, S, A, K.) ― -b2- And hence, accord. to AA, (S,) the same word, (S, A, K,) and ↓ زِرْبٌ , (ISk, S, K,) as some pronounce it, (ISk, S,) and ↓ زَرِيبَةٌ , (S, A, K,) (assumed tropical:) The place of sheep or goats; (A, K, TA;) [i. e.] an enclosure of wood for sheep or goats: (S:) [said in the TA to be tropical; but not so accord. to the A:] pl. of the first (A, K) and second (K) زُرُوبٌ , (A, K,) and of the last زَرَايءِبُ . (A.) ― -b3- And, as being likened thereto, (A,) زَرْبٌ and ↓ زَرِيبَةٌ signify also (tropical:) The lurking-place ( قُتْرَة ) of a hunter, or sportsman, (S, A, K,) or of an archer, or a shooter: (TA in explanation of the former word:) both signify a well [or pit] which the hunter, or sportsman, digs for himself that he may lie in wait therein for the game. (TA.) ― -b4- See also the next paragraph.

زِرْبٌ : see the next preceding paragraph. ― -b2- Also A channel in which water flows; (K;) and so ↓ زَرْبٌ . (TA.) It is said in a rejez of Kaab, تَبِيتُ بَيْنَ الزِّرْبِ وَالكَنِيفِ She passes the night between the channel of water and the concealing, or protecting, place: meaning that she is fed in the enclosures for camels &c., [ فِى الحظايءر , thus I read for الحضايءر (an evident mistranscription) in the TA,] and among the tents, or houses; not in the pasture-land. (TA.)

زِرْبِىٌّ and زُرْبِىٌّ , (K,) or, accord. to the L [and the A], on the authority of IAar, ↓ زَرْبِيَّةٌ , also said to be written زِرْبِيَّةٌ and زُرْبِيَّةٌ , (TA,) are sings. of ↓ زَرَابِىُّ , (K, TA,) which signifies نَمَارِقُ [app. as meaning Small pillows]: (S, A, K:) and carpets: or any things which are spread, and upon which one leans, or reclines: (A, K:) the like of this is said by Zj in explaining a phrase in which it occurs in the Kur lxxxviii. 16: or, accord. to Fr, it signifies carpets ( طَنَافِس ) having a fine nap, or pile: (TA:) also, [particularly,] (A,) carpets ( قُطُوع , A, or طَنَافِس , Har p. 377) of the fabric of El- Heereh; and the like thereof in fabric: (A, and Har ubi suprà:) or ↓ زربيّة signifies [simply] a carpet ( طِنْفِسَةٌ ): and a carpet ( بِسَاط ) having a nap, or pile: and a [piece of leather that is spread upon the ground, such as is called] نِطَع : and the like thereof in make. (TA. [See also the last sentence of this paragraph.]) [Hence,] one says, البَغْضَا=ءِ بَيْنَهُمْ مَبْثُوثَةٌ ↓ زَرَابِىُّ (tropical:) [The embellished coverings of vehement hatred are spread between them; i. e. vehement hatred concealed by fair professions &c. subsists between them]. (A.) The following saying, of Artáh Ibn-Suheiyeh, وَنَحْنُ بَنُو عَمٍّ عَلَى ذَاتِ بَيْنِنَا فِيهَا بِغْضَةٌ وَتَنافُسُ ↓ زَرَابِىُّ is expl. by En-Nemiree as meaning (assumed tropical:) [And we are sons of a paternal uncle, but] upon our enmity is a comely covering beneath which it is latent; [therein are vehement hatred and envious competition;] زَرَابِىُّ signifying [properly] carpets of sundry colours: (Ham p. 196:) it is also said to mean, in this instance, (assumed tropical:) [concealed] enmities, and sayings that give pain; [the former of these two meanings being] from زَرَبْتُ البَهْمَ فِى الزَّرِيبَةِ , i. e. أَدْخَلْتُهُ : [the latter of them app. suggested by another reading, namely, زَأَانِبُ in the place of زَرَابِىُّ ; mentioned and thus explained in the Ham ubi suprà: the poet, therefore, is supposed to have meant, upon our state of union, or concord, ( ذات بيننا having two contr. significations,) have supervened concealed enmities, &c.:] or, as some say, the reading in the deewán of Artáh is زَرَايءِبُ , as though pl. of ↓ زَرِيبَةٌ , which is likewise made to denote enmity because it is made to enter ( تُزْرَبُ , i. e. تُدْخَلُ ,) into the heart; or which may be metaphorically applied to a place of enmity latent in the bosom, from the same word as signifying the “ place in which are put lambs, or kids, and sheep, or goats: ” or, supposing the right reading to be ↓ زَرَابِىُّ , the poet may very properly mean, upon the vacant space between our tents, or houses, are carpets ( طَنَافِس and بُسُط ) spread for us, and we sit thereon, near together in the places, but with the hearts remote: (idem p. 195:) but with the reading زَأَانِبُ , mentioned above, occurs another variation, thus: عَلَى ذَاكَ بَيْنَنَا زَأَانِبُ ; meaning, notwithstanding that, between us are sayings that give pain. (Idem p. 196.) ― -b2- ↓ وَيْلٌ لِلزَّرْبِيَّةِ , occurring in a trad., is said to mean (tropical:) Wo to those who go in to lords, or princes, and, when they say what is evil, or say anything, say, He has spoken truth: such persons being likened, in respect of their variable conduct, to one of the زَرَابِىّ mentioned above in the first sentence of this paragraph; or to sheep, or goats, which are thus called in relation to the زَرْب , i. e. the enclosure to which they repair, because they are obsequious to the lords, or princes, and follow their steps with the submissiveness of sheep or goats to their pastor. (TA.) ― -b3- Accord. to El-Muärrij, (TA,) ↓ زَرَابِىُّ is applied to plants, as meaning Such as have become yellow, or red, while having in them greenness: (K, TA:) and when they saw the colours in carpets and other articles of furniture that are spread, they likened them to such plants. (TA.)

زَرْبِيَّةٌ and زِرْبِيَّةٌ and زُرْبِيَّةٌ : see the next preceding paragraph, in three places. ― -b2- [Golius, finding the second and third of these words expl. by the Pers. شادروان , (which is often applied by Arabs in the present day to “ an artificial fountain that throws up water, ”) has erroneously, as Freytag has observed, supposed that they may signify “ Euripus, fons in altum saliens. ”]

زَرِيبَةٌ : see زَرْبٌ , in two places: and see 1, first sentence. ― -b2- Also (assumed tropical:) The lurking-place of a beast of prey. (S, K.) ― -b3- See also زِرْبِىٌّ .

زَرَابِىُّ : see زِرْبِىٌّ , in five places.

زِرْيَابٌ , (in the CK زِرْباب ,) an arabicized word, (K, TA,) from [the Pers.] زَرْ ا=بْ , the hemzeh [in ا=بْ , for أَابْ ,] being changed into ى , (TA,) Gold: (IAar, K:) or the water thereof [i. e. water-gold; which may be deemed the more correct, as agreeing with the original]. (K.) ― -b2- And Anything yellow. (K.) -A2- Also A certain black singingbird; (MF, TA;) called also ابو زولق , [app. a mistranscription for ابو زريق , as in Freytag's Lex., i. e. أَبُو زُرَيْقٍ ,] accord. to the book entitled “ Mantik et-Teyr. ” (TA.)

مِزْرَابٌ i. q. مِرْزَابٌ [q. v., said to be not a chaste word]. (K.)
