Among the prayers recited in festival ceremonies, those with a particularly strong congratulatory meaning are called 'Hogigoto'. They can also be written as 'Kagoto' or 'Kichikoto', and can also be read as 'Hogigoto'. For personal celebrations, the 'Murohogi no Kotoba', which is used to celebrate the construction of a newly built house, has been passed down. For official occasions, the words of congratulations are presented to the Emperor, who is the living deity. The 'Nakatomi no Kotoba', recited by the Nakatomi clan of the Jingikan at the Sechie on the Dragon Day of the Senso Daijosai, is also called 'Amatsukami no Kotoba', and describes auspicious events that have occurred since the Age of the Gods, blessing the longevity of the reign. A separate entry in the Taiki, a diary by Fujiwara no Yorinaga, contains the congratulatory words offered by the Deputy Minister of Jingi, Onakatomi Kiyochika, at the Daijosai ceremony held in the first year of the Koji era (1142) during the reign of Emperor Konoe. The Engishiki also includes the "Izumo no Kuni no Miyatsuko no Kotoba," a congratulatory message to be offered to the Imperial Court when a new Izumo kuni no miyatsuko is appointed.

祭の儀式に唱えられる祝詞(のりと)のうちで、とくに祝賀の意味が濃いものを寿詞という。賀詞、吉詞とも書き、また「ほぎごと」とも読む。個人的な祝賀に用いるものとしては、新築の住宅を祝賀する「室寿詞(むろほぎのことば)」が伝えられている。公事(くじ)に用いられるものは、現御神(あきつみかみ)なる天皇に奏上する祝賀の詞である。践祚大嘗祭(せんそだいじょうさい)の辰日(たつのひ)の節会(せちえ)に神祇官(じんぎかん)の中臣(なかとみ)氏が奏上する「中臣(なかとみの)寿詞」は、「天神之(あまつかみの)寿詞」とも称し、神代以来の吉事を述べて御代(みよ)の長久を祝福するものである。藤原頼長(よりなが)の日記である『台記(たいき)』の別記に、近衛(このえ)天皇の康治(こうじ)1年(1142)の大嘗祭にあたり、神祇大副大中臣清親(おおなかとみのきよちか)が奏上した寿詞が収録されている。また『延喜式(えんぎしき)』祝詞のなかに載せる「出雲国造神(いずものくにのみやつこのかん)寿詞」は、出雲国造が新任されたとき、朝廷に参向して奏上する御代祝(みよほ)ぎの賀詞である。 [土岐昌訓] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
