Source Authority and Review Boundary
The source authority for this translation is the published Japanese entry for Katakamuna Uta 70. 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

Literal Gloss
The great sea-body is reflected into an inner cavity, where earth-blood loosens and flows as waves. The reflected sea enters deep waters of earth-blood; latent heavenly water spreads along its path. The sea is returned and reflected into the earth-blood of path and abundant shore, finally returning under the latent order to its manifold deep waters.
Interpretive English
Uta 70 maps a reciprocal circulation between sea, inner cavity, earth-blood, path, and shore. Its bodily-cosmic language is symbolic and not medical or 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.
