"Mysterious Rolling Boulders from Afar"[1] is a stage theme fromKirby: Triple Deluxe. This theme was composed by Hirokazu Ando.

Composition[edit]

Mysterious boulders won't squash Kirby from afar.

"Mysterious Rolling Boulders from Afar" is a bright 2/4 theme in the key of D major. This theme starts with an eight measure long intro before starting with the melody which is played by a recorder-like instrument. The same melody is played by another instrument, along with some added instrumentation. After this the song turns to B major and plays another melody. This melody is played twice before the key changes back to the former. The theme then ascends from a D note to an A note before playing a bit ofGreen Greens, and the song them loops to the first portion of the melody.
