Scope: An English rendering of Katakamuna Uta 05, separated into transliteration, controlled literal gloss, and interpretive English.
Transliteration
Hi Fu Mi Yo I — Mawarite Mekuru — Munaya Koto — Au no Suhe Shire — Katachi Saki
Literal Gloss
Hi/Fu/Mi/Yo/I: a five-stage sequence read here as fire/light, breath-expansion, water-body, four-directional field, and living breath. Mawarite Mekuru: to revolve around a center and, through turning, open the next phase. Munaya Koto: word-event arising from the inner chest / unnamed interior. Au no Suhe Shire: join, integrate at the center, and discern. Katachi Saki: form appears at its leading edge and blossoms open.
Interpretive English
Fire becomes breath, enters the water-body, opens into the four directions, and begins to move as living breath. Fire and water revolve around the center, and each turn opens the next phase. From the unnamed depth within the chest, word and event arise. Bring the meeting of fire and water into the true center and discern its operation. Then form begins to blossom at its leading edge. This is an interpretive rendering within the TENMON kotodama framework; it is not presented as a historical-etymological proof.
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.
