TENMON JITEN
Katakamuna Uta 46: Kamunagara
Scope: An English rendering of Katakamuna Uta 46, separated into transliteration, controlled literal gloss, and interpretive English.
Transliteration
Kamunagara — Kuni Katsuki — Futomani no Aya — Kamu Naohi — Oho Kamu Naohi — Itsu no Me ni — Oho Tochi Musuhi — Itsu no Me no — Sokotsu Watatsumi — Soko Tsutsuo — Ishi Mato Mari — Mekuru Nakatsutsuo
Literal Gloss
Victorious energy rises in the land and is woven into Futomani’s pattern. Kamu Naohi and great Kamu Naohi correct the current. The discerning eye distinguishes the Musuhi of the great earth and sees into the deep sea-body. A male conduit stands below; stone condensation rounds into a target and the circulating passage connects to the middle conduit.
Interpretive English
Uta 46 corrects the victorious fire through Futomani and Naohi, then establishes a vertical water-fire passage from the deep sea to the middle conduit. Tsuruki signifies discernment; no historical sound-origin claim is made.
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.
