Does anyone know what the script means in this photo? It's been bugging me for a while and I want to get this as a tattoo.

I don't think the Zelda text has an official meaning behind it, I think it's just meant to be gibberish so it was way easier to make the signs in Ocarina of Time, because you could just repeat the same meaningless gibberish in every single sign, which would make sense, but I might be wrong.

The writting in the Legend of Zelda is, for the most part, corrupted Japanese.

Couldn't you translate it in The Wind Waker and on a New Game Plus it would remain translated?

Just get the picture.
If you're interested enough to get to know what it sais then translate it, there were a few links above which will help you out. And then add the text later.
Or if you "learn" hurylian then you could write something of your own.
