Literal Gloss

The great word-event presses outward like a tide. Rock and earth differentiate into masculine fire and feminine water, and a great gate of questioning opens. Heavenly breath descends; pressure passes through covering and vital flow, opening the great sea-body. At the swiftly brightening harbor, masculine fire and feminine water stand.

Interpretive English

Uta 14 unfolds the land-womb into word, tide, differentiated rock-earth, descending heavenly breath, the great sea, and the paired forces at the water’s edge. The masculine/feminine language follows the source’s fire-water symbolism and is not presented as biological or historical-etymological fact.

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.
