I listened to this as a child, but forgot what it was called, left with only a hint of the tune. But, after searching, I found it, and I'm grateful.

I cried when I heard it the first time. It's so beautiful and I will always remember this in my whole life😢❤ just beautiful, Link...

Oh, thanks! :D

[@Lunar_Crescentfall]

I love Windwaker It may have a cartoony artstyle, but it sure is packed full of adventure and unforgettable moments! the music is just magic

[@TeddyOnTheSpot]

Riкυ Wind Waker still stands as my favorite game of all time. I love just about everything about it.

Riкυ art style was a plus for me

[@linkvangus]

[@eldoctoroso]

For anyone asking this is what the author meant for the lyrics to mean: We share one mind Time cannot bind us Remember The heart we share Now the enemy arms destroy me Farewell Yes this is beautiful, a great post war/battle song made by the wife/lover of a fallen one... (at least it is what i think)

[@thisgalistired3352]

Lolera222 It seems more like the past Link leaving a message for the next one. Because "The heart we share" and "Time cannot bind us."

[@lneri7152]

Venom Snake bad day?

[@stevealferenc3554]

But that's not right... it's in Latin, so there is a real translation...

[@iciclecold2991]

Aye, tis truly a mournful song. Beautiful, mournful, soulful, sad, and yet full of hope, knowing they are bound beyond time.

[@IATEALLTHECHEESE]

Makes me think of the of the Hero's Shade. A theory is that in OOT Link got together with Malon in one of the timelines, and then he went to go fight in wars in order to pursue being a warrior, and died somehow. But this is Wind Waker talking about a dead Zora.

[@MinecraftToonLink]

This song reminds me of the love I have for the Zelda series. The adventure, the music, the characters, and the way that Link still conveys feelings without speaking. There is nothing that can contest the love I have for these games. Many call it old, or slow-paced, or boring, but this game, I find, will be more action packed than any shooter, more heart-wrenching than any RPG, more scary than any horror game. Zelda will always have a place in my games-shelf. No matter how old I get, or how bad the games become, I'll always remember these games. Thank you Miyamoto, for blessing us with this beautiful series.

[@Deverim3327]

+MinecraftToonLink did you copy this? I remember seeing this comment on a different video.

[@MinecraftToonLink]

ThatRougeTho No, I may have posted this on another video accidentally, but I wouldn't copy a comment.

[@Deverim3327]

okay

[@patriciaokpoyo4529]

same here Buddy.

[@steph05302000]

+MinecraftToonLink i love you. lol i grew up with zelda, and i love how the games just give you such a calming atmosphere. The soundtracks are also soo beautiful as well as the design of the games :3

[@cloudanimal5209]

The entire song is like a sigh of some fairy by a still pond watching water striders glide around and feeling the breeze on her neck.

[@zues121510]

Very poetic.

[@cloudanimal5209]

Not really; it's a run-on sentence. :|

[@zues121510]

[@Deverim3327]

[@Muchhunk]

its more like someone taking away your family and you're a kid on the rain seeing all that bu you dont have nothing to help then

[@Karasune_kurohane]

nearly ten years later... still overwhelmed by melacholy and peace

[@schleepy6362]

When I was younger, I used to sing this to myself when I was feeling anxious (had bad anxiety back then) and it didn't poof those feelings away like magic, but the song stilled my heart and reminded me the feeling would pass, that everything was alright. Bless this song :)

[@Roshia_Cryo]

I have such huge love for Zelda. No matter how many times I enjoy other games, anime or other things, I keep coming back.

This song was one of the greatest musical themes and triumphs of The Wind Waker. My dear lady, I applaud you for making this piece even more beautiful than it was. Something very few people have done.

[@JordanSchorMusic]

I don't understand a single word but this is so beautiful

[@WarrenValion]

Read description.

[@frostedsilverwings2525]

they said they didn't understand what it was saying, not they didn't know what language it was in. Just because someone knows the language doesn't mean they speak it and or understand it. There are no lyrics written down so you can't just look it up by what it sounds like.

[@WarrenValion]

Frosted Silver Wings The description explains that the song is in Latin and has a translation.

[@frostedsilverwings2525]

The Dragon Ball Fanatic Just noticed your previous comment. Sorry I didn't realize you were responding to +Mr Ember Craft. I was on mobile and the comment didn't load.

[@zues121510]

well done, one of the songs, like ballad of the goddess/zelda's lullaby vocal cover and zelda's lullaby sung by nanami0406 that i cried to. you have my thanks

[@Streamy_Imp]

Woah! This brings me back to when Skyward Sword came out when I was 13. Talk about feeling old and nostalgic.

[@kawaitachi-chan]

It's really wonderful...

[@AsunaLunaNightsAngel]

The song reminds me of the fairy's pond just frozen there quietly waiting for a lullaby passed down from the Hyrulian family. As soon as the song that was passed down was heard, there was voice brought back up. The melodies. The calmness. It brings divine.

[@Muchhunk]

i agree with you

[@ubeyelliott6348]

It's been three years. I will never stop loving this.

[@ubeyelliott6348]

It's been seven years since I found this. Still love it :)

[@CopperGhostArt]

This song gives me this feeling of cold, yet brilliantly bright, nostalgia. And in a way, it calms me, and terrifies me at the same time. Like there is something I am not remembering. It is beautiful, and in a way, I am glad I can tap into that feeling, so thank you.

[@dontatme1]

You know, this really hits different watching the streets outside my window after midnight still working while the world is in lockdown and there is not a single soul to be seen due to a curfew

[@jackmullins2904]

6 years later and i still love it

[@hyromori]

I've never played Windwaker before, didn't even knew about it's existence until a few years ago, but i don't know why i feel like I've heard this before, and i don't mean it in the i heard that melody before, i mean it in the really heard and loved this song, i don't know why it gives me that special hint of nostalgia, but it just does.

[@larth7]

I'm so glad the video pauses itself for that groundbreaking annotation. I don't know what I would have done without such valuable information.

[@kamiliamigula5855]

I realized that Link in the picture is crying. It isn't nail polish on his finger, but a tear. Nice song, too! I love it!

[@AliAlter]

[@Greyishdragon]

SO beautiful... The lyrics made it even more perfect. And now, feelings, feelings everywhere...

I love this song. The picture fits the tone of the song well and the sound quality is great. (It annoys me slightly that the singers pronounce some of the Latin incorrectly, but I'll get over it for this amazing song.)

[@RiN_edits]

Words cannot describe how beautiful this music was. Your voice was amazing!

[@HuntressZelda]

No words can describe how awesome this is. :')

[@huemins]

This is so awesome... I just opened this song on newgrounds while having the youtube one playing... and even with three music players playing at the same time this just sounds more epic. The epicness... multiplies!!

Not judging at all. My fangirl was activated right there

[@NinoLenlegam]

[@CopperGhostArt]

I believe when OCRabbitGirl said "forgotten friend", she meant a friend that she used to hang around with. But for one reason or another, the two slipped away from each other. Now its almost as if they are forgotten, because it was such a time ago. I understand that feeling and how she can connect with this song that way. :)

[@CopperGhostArt]

Alright, everyone that is arguing right now over the blue nail thing: get a close up look at the image and decide for yourself. For the people arguing about the sword being left or right: it doesn't matter. Link has been known to be left handed a bit more, but has also been seen right handed, too. So does it really matter? This is simply something to marvel at, being so bittersweet, and wondrous.

[@777Rowen]

Absolutly beautiful :D I adore your heavenly voice.

[@rhainnongarrard451]

I have been searching for this for sooo long! Even after a year and a half, Its still my favorite~

[@FMAYasha12]

It's is supposed to have a sad, lovely feel. This picture gives off that feel.

[@HylianLuke]

This really shows how beautiful Zelda music, or Nintendo music in general can be.

[@MatusTykus]

That is one of the best fanfics of Link that I have ever seen. The blue fingernail polish and almost-sorrowful look on his face match the tone of the song perfectly. Kudos.

[@sparxfluffle]

Beautiful, just... breathtakingly beautiful.

[@SheerGlade]

This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.

[@LeaserRoy]

Beautiful. This is beyond amazing. Parts of this remind me of some songs from the Anime, Black Butler. Again, beautiful song.

[@Vespian_Doom]
