'''Sacred Tears''' are items found exclusively inside of [[Silent Realm]]s in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. In each Silent Realm, there are fifteen Sacred Tears. The tears are named after the goddess of the realm they are in, Tears of [[Din]], Tears of [[Farore]], and Tears of [[Nayru (Goddess)|Nayru]]. There are four Silent Realms in the game, but the last, the one in [[Skyloft]], has no special names for its tears; they are simply known as Sacred Tears. Sacred Tears are very similar to [[Tears of Light]], which are collectible tears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''.

For each Tear [[Link]] collects, the [[Guardian]]s, the protectors of the Silent Realms, are stunned for 90 seconds. However, this ability is reversed if Link steps into [[Waking Water]]. When Link picks up a Tear, he stores them in the [[Spirit Vessel]], a container symbolizing his spirit and spiritual growth. Link can also pick up [[Light Fruit]], small white orbs that will create a pillar of light for 30 seconds where the Tears are located. After Link collects all fifteen of the Tears, he must return to the [[Trial Gate]] to finish the quest. Each time Link finishes a Silent Realm, he is awarded with spiritual growth and a gift from the each Goddess.
