Hylian Language Translations/Twilight Princess HD

From Zelda Wiki, the Zelda encyclopedia

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD uses a form of Hylian text that is a cipher based on the Latin alphabet. It translates directly to English in most cases, and occasionally to Japanese. The form of Hylian text introduced in The Wind Waker also makes an appearance in the Kakariko Village Graveyard.

Most instances of Hylian text from the original release of Twilight Princess are carried over to Twilight Princess HD. The following text is newly-added or changed.

     ? 		Blake Hollins [note 2]
The number one good
Today started off just nice
but then it started to rain!
No one likes rain because
there would be no point in
dancing, what do you
think?
                 
               
             
              .
           
         .      
                 
            
              
            		There was a guy
named Blake who
would love to
dance and sing.
Blake was a
happy lad. Blake
would smile every
day he could
People how was
to meet him
                  
     .

   .
                    
          ....      		Blake Hollins is
ninja. He would take
lollipops from kids
and would laugh
about it. But he was
good guy and I
would have to say he
would not stop
sailing and tapdac

The secret is in the
cookie jar.... good
