Transcription of original Japanese text:

ものがたり

ここは妖精の森。この森の奥には妖精が住んでいて、その姿を見た者は幸せになれる、という言い伝えがあります。ある日マリオは、伝説の妖精を探しに森にやってきみました。ピーチやヨッシー、ルイージもいっしょ……だったはずですが、あれっ、ルイージの姿が見えません。マリオたち3人は、手分けして迷子のルイージを探すことになりました。

と、上空にあやしいエンジンの音。なんということでしょう。愛機ブルドッグ号に乗ったワリオが現れ、空からバケツをほうり投げてきました。
「ヒュー、ズポッ！」
おっと、バケツはマリオの頭にスッポリ命中。
「うわー、これじゃなんにも見えないよー」

これを見ていた森の妖精ワンダ。なんとか助けてあげたいけれど、小さな妖精にはバケツをはずす力はありません。そこでワンダは、魔法のつえでマリオに合図を送り、ルイージのもとへ案内してあげることにしたのですが……。

English translation:

Story

This is Yōsei no Mori. Within the forest's depths lives a fairy, and those who behold it find happiness, as the tale goes. One day, Mario sought the fabled fairy by coming to the forest. Peach, Yoshi and Luigi were together......or should have been, but alas, Luigi's visage was unseen. Mario's group of three had decided to look for lost little Luigi.

Then, the sky was overcome with a suspicious engine's sound. What was that? It was Wario riding his personal plane, the Bulldog, and he threw a bucket from the sky.

"Here you go!"

Uh oh, the bucket landed right over Mario's head.

"Uwagh, I can't see in this thing!"

Watching was the forest's fairy, Wanda. She somehow wanted to help, but the small fairy did not have the ability to remove the bucket. Thus, Wanda decided to use her magic wand on Mario to send signals, guiding him to Luigi......
