Sun's Song


 * The rising sun will eventually set,
 * A newborn's life will fade.
 * From sun to moon, moon to sun...
 * Give peaceful rest to the living dead.
 * —Poem describing the Sun's Song in the Royal Family's Tomb

The Sun's Song is a magical song from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Composed by the royal composer brothers, Flat and Sharp, the song's main purpose is to change night to day, and day to night. The notes of this song are in 6/8, and go Right, Down, Up, Right Down, Up.

When the song is played in vicinity of ReDeads and Gibdos, these enemies will become immobile for a limited amount of time.

This can also be used for time to go by quicker. For example, when Biggoron tells Link to wait three to four days, you can play the sun's song six to eight times to make those days go by.

If listened to carefully, one will realize that the song itself is the Dawn theme that plays when dawn is breaking.

In The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, the Sun's Song appears sometimes when Link is sailing over the Great Sea.
