There are many songs that you can play on the Ocarina of Time OoT Items Ocarina of Time.png. Some of these are needed to complete the game, but it is possible to play other songs as well.

For the GameCube controller, you can use the Neutral cstick and/or X button, Y button, Z button to select the items.

The Wii Classic Controller uses the Neutral rstick, X button, Y button and/or Zl button/Zr button to select an item.

The rest of the content on this page is displayed depending on the controller setting chosen at the top of this page

Use A button and Left cUp cRight cDown c to play notes.

Holding R button makes the note sharp, and holding Z button makes the note flat. Up control gradually raises the note to its next higher note, and Down control dips it to the next lower one. Left control or Right control gives the note a vibrating effect.

Song List

Zelda's Lullaby

Use any time you see the Triforce, the Royal Family Crest, or when you need to establish yourself as a messenger of the Royal Family. For example, when this song is played while standing on the Triforce-shaped crest in the Kakariko Graveyard, the Royal Tomb will open, allowing entry. Playing the tune in front of Darunia's room in Goron City will open the door into his room. Playing this song on the crest at the end of the Zora's River will reveal the entrance to Zora's Domain behind the waterfall. If you break a sign and play this song, the sign will be restored. Playing this song near Gossip Stones (one-eyed statues) causes rejuvenating fairies to appear.

Epona's Song

Use in Hyrule Field to call Epona to your side (does not work as Young Link). Also, playing the song near a cow will earn you a bottle full of free milk (assuming you have an empty bottle).

Saria's Song

Use anywhere to talk to Saria. Saria will give you a hint as to where you should proceed next. For example, after obtaining the Goron Ruby from the Gorons, the only way of knowing to visit the Zoras for the Zora's Sapphire is to talk to Saria. Also used to cheer up the Goron Elder Darunia before entering the Dodongo's Cavern.

Sun's Song

Any time you can see the sky (ie., not in a dungeon), play this song to switch between day and night. After playing this song, the game will proceed from either 12:00 noon or 12:00 midnight. This song also freezes ReDeads, but only temporarily. This song can also summon a fairy if Navi turns green.

Scarecrow's Song

Causes a scarecrow to appear that can be helpful in your quest.

The notes of this song can be composed by you. Talk to the scarecrow at Lake Hylia and play a song eight notes long. This song can be changed at any time and it is the only song that will not be recorded with the others on the Quest Status screen.

Frog mini game

As a child, you can play songs to the frogs in Zora's river for rewards (such as two pieces of heart). Please see the Minigames page for more details.
