Super Smash Bros. Brawl Main Theme
The Main Theme song in particular was revealed along with the game itself at the game's first trailer in E3 2006 before being posted at the site much later. This thundering orchestra with vocals sung in Latin was composed by famed Final Fantasy series composer Nobuo Uematsu, and its lyrics were supervised by Sakurai himself.

Lyrics
Audi famam illius.
Solus in hostes ruit
et patriam servavit.
Audi famam illius.
Cucurrit quaeque tetigit destruens.
Audi famam illius.
Audi famam illius.
Spes omnibus, mihi quoque.
Terror omnibus, mihi quoque.
Ille
iuxta me.
Ille iuxta me.
Socii sunt mihi.
qui olim viri fortes
rivalesque erant.
Saeve certando pugnandoque
sprendor crescit.
Translated Lyrics
I`ve have heard this tale Alone, he rushed into his foes And his homeland was saved
I`ve have heard this tale As he ran each thing... ...he touched was destroyed
I`ve have heard this tale I`ve have heard this tale
He gave hope to all ...myself includeed He struck fear into all, myslef included
He... ...is near ME
He... He is near Me My comrades Who were once strong warriors (and)rivals, are here
Furiously competing Battling one other Their splendor grew
