Transliteration

Kamunagara — Oho Watatsumi — Kawa Umi Wake — Ikatsu Awa Naki Awa Nami — Kata Futo Musuhi — Oho Tonochi — Ame no Mikumari — Kuni no Mikumari — Tsura Naki Mekuru — Toyo Tsura Nami

Literal Gloss

The great sea-body opens under the latent order. River and sea differentiate into channel and containment; potent fire-water produces calm foam and foam-wave. Form joins great Musuhi, enters the inner ground of the great hall, and is distributed as the waters of heaven and land. The calm surface revolves and spreads as abundant surface-waves.

Interpretive English

Uta 36 organizes water circulation through sea, river, calm and wave, Musuhi, inner ground, and heavenly-earthly distribution. The reading remains bounded to the canonical Japanese interpretation.

Evidence Boundary

This English edition preserves the Japanese source’s distinction between canonical text, structural observation, TENMON interpretation, comparison, and unverified hypothesis. Sound correspondences are not presented as proof of historical etymology.
