This game was originally known in Japanese as 『THE HYRULE FANTASY ゼルダの伝説』 when released on the Famicom Disk System in 1986, and then as 『THE HYRULE FANTASY ゼルダの伝説１』 (note the explicit "1" added to the name) when it was re-released in Japan on the Famicom cartridge system in 1994.
Due to size restraints in the original game format, all Japanese text is in katakana only (not counting the title screen graphic of course). Kanji and hiragana versions of words may be included below for educational purposes.
Title screen
Should include a graphic of this... it shows the words "THE HYRULE FANTASY" in small print to the upper left of ゼルダの伝説１ in large print, with the 1 shown extra large to the right (the 1 isn't included in the original Japanese (FDS) or North American (NES) releases). The North American release has the words "THE LEGEND OF" in place of "THE HYRULE FANTASY" and the word "ZELDA" in place of "ゼルダの伝説" (which by itself in Japanese literally means the full "Legend of Zelda").
Instead of "PUSH START BUTTON", the original Japanese FDS version reads: Bメンヲ セットシテクダサイ
Items
These are listed under the heading of "ALL OF TREASURES" and scroll by after the intro above. (The kanji are not used in the game.)
| Kanji | Kana | English | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| ハート | Heart | ||
| 命の器 | イノチ ノ ウツワ | Container Heart | I believe this is the only Zelda game to use the name "Container Heart". All other Zelda games appear to use the name "Heart Container". The name in Japanese literally means "Container of Life". |

| 時計 | トケイ | Clock | |
| ルピー | Rupy | ||
| ５ ルピー | 5 Rupies | ||
| 命の水 青 | イノチノミズ アオ | Life Potion | Lit: Life Water Blue |

| バイブル | Book of Magic | The English name of this in the original Famicom Disk System version of the game was "Bible", and the katakana here still says the same thing even though the English version was changed to "Book of Magic" for the North American release and later Japanese Famicom cartridge release (which is what we're working from). | |

Dialogue
Starting Cave - Old Man with Sword
一人 literally means "one person." However, when 一人で is used it has a strong connotation of "alone." 自分で has a similar but distinct connotation.

Old Man - Money Making Game
Old Man - Secret Caves
In other words: pay up!
Old Man with Letter

Old Woman - Under Waterfall / Cave, South of the Lost Woods - When given too much Rupees
Shopkeeper
This man is speaking Kansai-ben. This is probably invoking at least one of several stereotypes of people from Osaka (the most well-known subdialect of Kansai): they tend to be perceived as rude, loudmouthed, boisterous, and mercantilistic. Kansai-ben speakers also tend to be perceived as funny, because many comedians are from Kansai. So an Osakan (or the Hyrule equivalent) rudely demanding that you buy something is probably funny for the same reason the Rich Texan Guy from The Simpsons is funny.
In Standard Japanese, the te form of 買う (かう) is かって. In Kansai-ben, 買う is still かう, but its te form becomes こうて.
なんか is short for 何か (なにか).
Shopkeeper - Secret Shops
でっせ is Kansai-ben for ですよ.
