Final Fantasy's Opening Theme plays the very first time you cross Cornelia Bridge. This occurs early on in the game after you've rescued the princess. The tune plays as you watch the opening credits.
This song can be heard near the end of Final Fantasy III (SNES)'s ending song, Balance Is Restored.
Title
There isn't an official English release of the song, but title is entirely in katakana, オープニング・テーマ (Opuningu Tema), which, in English, is "Opening Theme."

Lyrics (Unofficial)
Brentalfloss composed these lyrics for his album What If This CD... Had Lyrics?
Once again the world might fall prey to an ancient evil Once again we're hurled into darkness and great upheaval Those who can enlist, let's unite and we'll fight together We must save the crystals or orbs or the moon—whatever. Come, lets fly, we'll sail where the wind may take us through that starry sky, ‘Cause apparently back then they had ships that could do that Draw your sword and stick it in trees that have human features Journey toward the thicket and steal shit from woodland creatures Though the villain shames us, we'll pwn all his dark abettors Funny how our names all contain less than seven letters Shine your light, the forces of evil can't outlast a mage, a knight, a weird little kid and a ninja master Key change, mofo! Raise our levels high cross the mountains and plains and oceans Don't forget to buy several buttloads of tents and potions Storm the villain's hideout and keep your courageous spirit Scream a battle cry loud enough that the bitch can hear it Finally, the hunter of souls shall be the hunted Now they'll see we'll save humankind like we always wanted When we were little Summer vacation, Dancing in our jammies, Cause we beat Final Fantasy! Yeah!
