EamaArapN * Anything (AO, S, O, K) which one puts, (S, O,) or which a chief puts, (TA,) upon his head, such as a turban, and a qalanosuwap , and a crown, &c., (AO, S, O, K,) as a sign of headship, and for keeping it in mind; (TA;) as also ↓ EamorapN (K) and ↓ EamaArN : (S, O, * TA:) which last [is app. a coll. gen. n., of which EamaArapN is the n. un., and] also signifies any sweet-smelling plant ( rayoHaAn ) which a chief puts upon his head for the same purpose: and hence, (tropical:) any such plant, absolutely: (B:) or any such plant with which a drinkingchamber is adorned, (S, K,) called by the Persians mayowaraAno ; when any one comes in to the people there assembled, they raise somewhat thereof with their hands, and salute him with it, wishing him a long life: so, accord. to some, in a verse of El-Aashà, which see below: (S:) or it there signifies crowns of such plants, which they put upon their heads, as the foreigners ( AlEajam ) do; but ISd says, “ I know not how this is: ” or the myrtle; syn. A=s : (TA:) and EamaArpN signifies a plant of that kind, with which one used to salute a king, saying, May God prolong thy life: or, as some say, a raising of the voice, saying so: (Az, TA:) a salutation; (K;) said to mean, may God prolong thy life; (TA;) as also ↓ EamaArN (S, K) and ↓ EimaArapN ; (L;) but Az says that this explanation is not valid. (TA.) El-Aashà says, falam~aA A^ataAnaA buEayoda AlkaraY ↓ sajadonaA lahu warafaEonaA AlEamaAraA [ And when he came to us, a little after slumber, we prostrated ourselves to him, and ] we put the turbans from our heads, in honour of him: (S:) but IB says that, accord. to this explanation, the correct reading is waDaEonaA AlEamaAraA : (TA:) or the former reading means, we raised our voices with prayer for him, and said, May God prolong thy life: or we raised the sweet-smelling plants: &c.: see above. (S, TA.) ― -b2- Also EamaArapN , (K,) or ↓ EimaArapN , (O,) An ornamented piece of cloth which is sewed upon a miZ~l~ap , [by which is meant a kind of tent, ] (O, K, TA,) i. e. sewed to the Tariyqap [q. v.], on each side of the tent-pole, (O,) as a sign of headship.

EimaArapN * [is an inf. n.: and often signifies Habitation and cultivation; or a good state of habitation and cultivation: ― -b2- and is also expl. as signifying] maA yuEomaru bihi AlmakaAnu [ That by which a place is rendered inhabited, peopled, well stocked with people and the like, colonized, cultivated, well cultivated, in a flourishing state, or in a state the contrary of desolate or waste or ruined; app. meaning, work, or labour, by which a place is rendered so; as it is immediately added in the K that EumaArapN signifies hire, pay, or wages, of it, or for it; and the explanation which I have here given is agreeable with ancient and modern usage; to which it may be further added, that the measure ( fiEaAlapN ) is common to words signifying arts, occupations, or employments, as ziraAEapN and filaAHapN &c.]. (K, TA.) ― -b3- Also a subst. from Eamara Ald~aAra . (Msb.)
