بُجْرَةٌ

A tumour, or swelling, or an inflation, in the navel; the like of which in the back is termed عُجْرَهٌ: (IAar, IAth:) or the part of the navel-string which remains after it has been cut, when it is thick at the base, and fleshy at the neck, or slender part, with wind remaining in the enlarged part; as also ↓ بَجَرَةٌ: (ISd, L:) or the navel, (L, K,) of a man and of a camel, (L,) whether large or not: (L, K:) and a knot in the belly: (L, K:) or a knotted vein in the belly; the like of which in the back is termed عُجْرَةً: (L:) and (as some say, L) a knot in the face, and in the neck: (L, K:) plural بُجَرٌ. (L.) [See also عُجْرَةٌ.]

[Hence,] ذَكَرَ عُجَرَهُ وَبُجَرَهُ (tropical:) He mentioned his vices, or faults, and his whole state or case: (K:) or all his affairs; those which were apparent and those which were hidden: or his secrets: or his vices, or faults. (TA.) And أَفَضَيْتُ إِلَيْكَ بِعُجَرِى وَبُجَرِى (tropical:) I have revealed to thee my vices, or faults; meaning, my whole state or case. (S.) And أَخْبَرْتُهُ بِعُجَرِى وَبُجَرِى (tropical:) I acquainted him with my vices, or faults, which I conceal from others, by reason of my confidence in him. (As.) And أَشْكُو إِلَى اللّٰهِ عُجَرِى وَبُجَرِى, said by 'Alee, (tropical:) I complain unto God of my sorrows and my griefs; (IAar, IAth;) meaning, all my affairs or circumstances; those which are apparent and those which are hidden. (IAth.) [See, again, عُجْرَةٌ.]

It is said in a prov., ↓ عَيَّرَ بُجَيْرٌ بُجَرَةْ نَسِىَ بُجَيْرٌ خَبَرَهْ, meaning (assumed tropical:) [Bujeyr cast reproach upon] his vices, or faults: [Bujeyr forgot his own state or condition:] or, as some say, they were two men: [so that the meaning is, Bujeyr reproached Bujarah: &c.:] (S:) according to El-Mufaddal, Bujeyr and Bujarah were two brothers, in an ancient age: but according to the lexicologists, the meaning is, that one affected with what is termed a بُجْرَة in his navel reproached another for that which was in him.
