Source details and larger version.

By fire, it’s typically beaten

But winds, they blew through

And toppled it, too

a need for nicknaming was plain.

Because there were nine,

claiming "Link is mine!"

Keeping their name was in vain.

There once was a hero named Sky,

who fell from lands up high.

He was easy to amuse,

always ready to snooze,

and with his loftwing he loved to fly.

There once was a hero named Four,

whose forge work was without flaw.

He talked to his hat,

was nearly eaten by a cat,

and of himself he was incredibly sure.

There once was hero of Time,

who cherished his dear fairy's chime.

Gannondorf he did flee,

split the timeline in three,

the sword only wanted him in his prime.

The Hero of Legend was their vet,

on his fingers magic rings were set.

He wore a blue cap,

and loved a good map,

and was a merman whenever he got wet!

There once was a hero who healed,

he had magic aplenty to wield.

Woke a princess with a kiss,

thought exploring was bliss,

Hyrule used magic as his shield.

There once was a boy who sailed,

and from a small island he hailed.

Not a hero by right,

but instead his own might,

Wind's determination always prevailed.

There once was hero of Wars,

whose allies came through magic doors.

His long scarf was blue,

to his mission he was true,

even when facing his flaws.

There once was a humble goat-herd,

who suffered something absurd.

A wolf he became,

took Twilight for a name,

never sure which form he preferred.

There once was a hero named Wild,

trained as a knight since a child.

No memories had he,

from before the Calamity,

but his plans would never be mild.

There once were boys named Link,

who were stronger than one might think.

An evil to defeat,

a story they repeat,

worthy of capturing in ink.

oh, he's cool

Who was true to her drives and her target

Both to make tasty bread

And make vampires dead
