Sit oh weary traveler,
Who hath come a long way
To hear the lost legend
Of that one fateful day
In the town of the kingdom
A young man wakes to morning light
To an unknown adventure
Oblivious of his upcoming fight
The man’s name is Link
Exploring the kingdom
Outside of the village
Glad for his freedom
The cool, brisk wind
Seems to be calling him
A galloping horse, a run in the grass
And he arrives at a castle, unsettlingly dim
A whisper from the dark
Voicing his name
He enters the castle
Emotions so tame
A figure out of the shadows
Flies into the hero’s arms
The princess Zelda, in dismay
Tells him of many morbid harms
Embracing her friend she tells
“Ganon is here” says she
“And if we don’t do anything,
He’ll come to capture me.”
“That’s true,” says a voice
“I will, right now,
I am Ganondorf
I’ll have the throne, I vow.”
The hiss of a sword
Escaping its sheath
Link swings at the villain
The floor rumbling beneath
The shriek of metal
Clashing against its own
A fierce battle
Between hearts of flesh and stone
As Link fights for his life
And Ganon for the throne
Zelda is in the corner
Fighting herself alone
Link is knocked back
Into the princess
But she heals his wounds
With her tenderness
He gets back up
Link, fire in his eyes
Dashes forward to swing his sword
One last time
A quick strike
And Ganon is down
Link has saved the princess
And Hyrule Town
This is the legend
That happened long ago
At the fields of Hyrule
Where clear rivers flow
