زمل

زَمَلٌ ذ The kind of verse, or poetry, [ more commonly ] termed رَجَز: [hence,] a poet says, لَا يُغْلَبُ النَّازِعُ مَا دَامَ الزَّمَلْ [ The drawer of water will not be overcome as long as the زمل continues ]; meaning, as long as he recites [or chants] the verse termed رَجَز [or زَمَل], he is strong enough to work: thus it is related on the authority of AA: another reading is الرَّمَلْ: both are correct as to meaning. (IJ, TA.)
