Scope: An English rendering of Katakamuna Uta 47, separated into transliteration, controlled literal gloss, and interpretive English.

Transliteration

Kamunagara — Uhatsu Watatsumi — Murachi Itsuku — Uha Tsutsuo — Amaterasu — Utsushiki — Kana Saku — Take Haya Susanoo — Tsukiyomi Ma — Mikura Tana — Takiri Hime — Ichikishima — Sayori Hime

Literal Gloss

The upper sea-body opens; gathered earth-blood is consecrated and the upper conduit stands. Solar fire passes as Amaterasu and the pattern of reflection appears. Hard condensation is split; swift, forceful fire-water moves, while Tsukiyomi reads reflection from the center. A sacred store-shelf is set and three receptive water-functions arise.

Interpretive English

Uta 47 completes upper, middle, and lower circulation and differentiates solar, lunar, forceful, storage, and three water functions. Divine names are retained as source entities, not reduced to speculative etymology.

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.
