Transliteration

Take Ikazuchi — Take Futsu no Musuhi — Iwa Saku Ne Saku — Iwa Tsutsu O Mari — Tsurane Mikahi — Hayahi Nu — Kamunagara — Toyouke Hime Nu — Ikazuchi Hibiki — Ma no Ne — Katakamuna

Literal Gloss

Jointed, powerful earth-force appears as thunder-spirit. Great cleaving Musuhi separates and reconnects; rock and root split to open an inner passage. Masculine fire passes through the rock conduit and rounds. Fire-water reflects along connected root-surfaces and swift fire penetrates. Received by Toyouke’s receptive water, thunder-resonance passes to the central root and returns to Katakamuna.

Interpretive English

Uta 40 transforms purified elements into thunder-like earth-force, opens rock-root channels, receives the current in Toyouke, and returns the resonance to the central root. This remains a TENMON interpretation, not 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.
