"Terra's Theme" is the overworld theme of the World of Balance.

Its motif is included in "Save the Espers!", which plays at the battle with the Ten Moogles and the Imperial Army for Terra at the Narshe Mines, at the Battle for the Frozen Esper and during the escape from the Magitek Research Facility; and in the game's Ending Theme from 7:46 to 8:20, and later at 16:46.
