This song is based on Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore, which is a traditional Irish song. Don't be too harsh; this is my first song-fic, and I don't think I'm very good at them. While you're reading it, pretend that Link was grown up when the whole Majora's Mask thing happened, ok?

The Hylian Shore
----------------------------------------
I rode away from Hyrule fay,
On the 24th of May.
I was sitting tall on Epona then,
But now I'm barely awake.
Good food then, I did take on,
Two or three weeks' worth, or more,
In case I got lost, or stuck in the frost,
Far away from the Hylian Shore.
So fare thee well, sweet Zelda dear,
And likewise to Hyrule Town.
And twice farewell to the Gorons bold
Who still dwell on that Mountain ground,
If ever Nayru should favor me,
And my questing should end, my lord,
Well I'll come back, and I'll wed,
The sweet lassie I left,
Far away on the Hylian Shore.
I rode three days,
My body was sore,
No bone of mine was free.
There I lay, confined to my bedroll soft,
With no one to pity me.
No fond Zelda dear, or Saria, kind,
To hold my head when it's sore.
This mademe think more,
On the lass I left,
When Irode from the Hylian Shore.
And now I rest in Termina Inn,
For thirteen and seven days.
I'm tired of traveling, my questing is through.
That damned mask is sent on its way.
So now I drink a final glass,
While the new-wedded pair dance around.
I'm to bid farewell to the friends I've made.
And return to the Hylian Shore.
So fare thee well, sweet Zelda dear.
And likewise to Hyrule Town.
And twice farewell tothe Zorabold,
Who still dwell in thatwatery ground,
When Farore thinks to favor me,
And my questing should come to an end,
Well I'll come back, and I'll wed,
The sweet lassie I left,
Far away on the Hylian Shore.
