Source Authority and Review Boundary
The source authority for this translation is the published Japanese entry for Katakamuna Uta 10. Its canonical text, structural analysis, and evidence labels govern any discrepancy. This English rendering preserves the transliteration, literal gloss, and interpretive layer separately; it does not expand the Japanese authority’s claims.
Publication boundary: this page does not reproduce private research archives or the full text of rights-unverified modern materials. Historical, linguistic, and comparative statements retain the certainty limits of the Japanese authority.
Review disclosure: linguistically reviewed by TENMON AI under owner authorization; it is not represented as human-reviewed.
Transliteration
Mekuru Ma no Minakanushi — Takami Musuhi — Kamumi Musuhi — Onokoro Shima — Kamuna Hoku — Ame Tsuchi Ne Hashimari
Literal Gloss
The lord of the revolving center begins to turn. The manifesting and latent bonds operate; fire-water gathers of itself and becomes an island. The latent receives name and place and is blessed, while the roots of heaven and earth become a bridge and are joined fast.
Interpretive English
Uta 10 reactivates the two Musuhi from the revolving central lord. Their movement produces Onokoro Shima as a self-condensing generative field and binds the roots of heaven and earth as a bridge. This is a TENMON structural interpretation and does not assert 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.
