Transliteration
Kamunagara — Ama Ware Ma — Ame no Kuso Musu — Oki Yahoma — Kamu Utsushi — Sube Kaeshi — Funa Koroshi — Kamunagara — Ana Ama Hayu Yutsu — Kona Kamumi Mari — Ame no Koto Michi Yomi — Kamu Ama
Literal Gloss
A true interval opens within heavenly water; even heavy turbidity in its deepest region is joined to Musuhi. Kamu is reflected into the deep eight-directional intervals. The return is governed and the vessel’s condensation processed. Inner cavity and heavenly water connect; subtle divine body rounds, the heavenly path of word-events is read, and that reading returns to latent heavenly water.
Interpretive English
Uta 76 integrates even deep turbidity into Musuhi, processes the carrying vessel, and reads the heavenly word-path back into latent water. This is a symbolic source-bound interpretation.
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.
