* تَمُجُّ اللُّغَامَ الهَيَّبَانَ كَأَنَّهُ *
* جَنَى عُشَرٍ تَنْفِيهِ أَشْدَاقُهَا الهُدْلُ *

[She ejects from her mouth the scattered and light froth, as though it were plucked fruit of the 'oshar which the flabby sides of her mouth cast forth:] and we also find, in the R, قُطْنٌ هيّبانٌ explained as signifying cotton that is plucked, or teased with the fingers, so as to become scattered; syn. منتفش: or هيّبان signifies, in the abovecited verse, accord. to some, Light, [which signification is also given in the Ḳ, but in the CK displaced; following, instead of preceding, the word الرَّاعِى, and without و before it;] and separated into small particles: (TA:) [or] the froth of the mouth of camels; (Az, Ḳ;) i. q. لُغَامٌ: (Mj, Sifr es-Sa'ádeh:) Az cites the above verse; and says, that the fruit of the عُشَر [or asclepias gigantea] comes forth like a small pomegranate, and, when burst open, discloses what resembles [white] raw silk; to which the poet likens the froth of the camel's mouth. (TA.)

Root: هيب - Entry: هَيَّبَانٌ Signification: A3
