Zelda's Lullaby

Zelda's Lullaby is a song taught by Impa after initially meeting Princess Zelda in Ocarina of Time. It is a sacred song with mysterious powers passed down by the Royal Family for generations, and it also served as a lullaby for the young Princess Zelda. Zelda's Lullaby plays a major role in solving numerous puzzles in the game, such as raising water levels in the Water Temple, to entering Zora's Domain as young Link, and opening other hidden passages. The mark that usually signals the need to play Zelda's Lullaby is a Triforce symbol.

According to Impa, only members of the Royal Family are allowed to learn Zelda's Lullaby; as such, playing this tune helps prove Link's connection to the Royal Family.
