The "Wind God's Aria" is a song from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. The melody of the song is the second part of the game's opening medley.
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
The "Wind God's Aria" is taught to Link by Fado. Fado was the Sage of Wind until Ganondorf's magic destroyed him inside the Wind Temple. His spirit remained, in the hopes that the new Sage of Wind could be awakened. Makar awakens as the new Sage, as he played the song on his violin to open the Wind Temple. Makar only plays half the song upon destroying the stone that blocks the entrance to the temple, but after Makar is awakened as the Wind Sage, he can be found in what was once the dungeon's boss room. He will offer to play the entire song. Both it and the Earth God's Lyric are truly the song that plays before you press the start button .
Spoiler warning: Spoilers end here.
Interestingly, when played in front of a broken sign, the sign will re-assemble, similar to the effects "Zelda's Lullaby" has when played in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and the "Song of Healing" in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.
The actual pitches of the notes translate as follows: A, A, G, F#, E F#.
