فرخ

4 أَفْرَخَتْ ذ said of a bird: ― -b2- and of an egg: see 2. ― -b3- [Hence,] one says, أَفْرَخَ بَيْضَةُ القَوْمِ, meaning (assumed tropical:) What was hidden, of the affair, or case, of the people, or company of men, became apparent. (ISh, TA in art. بيض. [See also a similar phrase in what follows.]) And افرخ فُؤَادُهُ (tropical:) His heart became free from fear: fear in the heart being likened to a young bird in the egg. (L.) And افرخ الرَّوْعُ (tropical:) Fright, or fear, departed; (S, K, TA;) as also ↓ فرّخ, inf. n. تَفْرِيخٌ: (K, TA:) and one says, لِيُفْرِحْ رَوْعُكَ (tropical:) Let thy fright, or fear, depart; like as the young bird goes forth from the egg. (S, TA. [But see رَوْعٌ: and see also a phrase similar to this in what follows.]) And أَفْرَخَ الأَمْرُ The affair, or case, became manifest, or plain, (S, A, L, K,) as to its issue, or result, (L,) after having been confused, or dubious; (S, A, L, K;) as also ↓ فرّخ. (L.) ― -b4- افرخ القَوْمُ بَيْضَهُمْ, (S, L, K,) or بَيْضَتَهُمْ, (as in some copies of the K,) meaning (tropical:) The people, or party, disclosed their secret, (S, L, K, TA,) is said of those whose case has become apparent. (L.) [Hence it seems that افرخ البَيْضَةَ properly signifies It (a bird) hatched the egg, and produced the young bird. ] أَفْرِخْ رَوْعَكَ (tropical:) Calm thy mind, (S, L, K, TA,) is a prov., mentioned by Az, from A'Obeyd, as said, on occasions of fear, to him who is cowardly. (L, TA.) And أَفْرَخَ رَوْعَهُ means (assumed tropical:) He prayed for him that his fright, or fear, might become calmed, and depart. (AO, TA.) ― -b5- See also 2, latter half.
