Literal Gloss

Breath descends into earth and blood. Horn and stake establish and fix the field; life-breath moves through the receptive water-womb while a pillar of fire is set within it. Inner hall and outer boundary appear. Water and fire are stirred into wave and calm, floating and gestating functions divide, and a great box-like womb of land is formed.

Interpretive English

Uta 13 carries the order of the inner spirit into embodied land. Breath, earth, blood, pillars, womb, inner and outer space, wave and calm cooperate until the country forms as a great containing matrix. This is a structural reading of the Japanese authority, not proof that its sound correspondences share historical origins.

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.
