Steps echo beyond space
Large windows serving the sun
A hall of stone and choir reach the sky
The regal shape shrines the Goddess
It is the house of the Blade of Evil's Bane
And the gates to the Golden Land
Wave upon wave of times
As spaces change through each ripple
Her Grace is born anew in mortal flesh
She shall await the coming of the Hero
And so shall she aid him in the quest
And so shall the Golden Path be opened
Darkness will find its flesh as well
The Demon King will infect his curse
And rise to destroy all that is good
Through earth, fire, and water
To shadow and spirit will he rule
'Till the coming of the Hero of Time
The Temple of Time stands alone
Against the onslaught it lingers
In service to Hylia and the Hero
The Master Sword shall awaken
And will cut light into the darkness
