From the official guides
The boy who played the flute in the Haunted Grove has strayed into the Dark World. Talk to him and you should learn where the flute is. Once you find it, talk to the boy again.
Long ago there was a boy who loved to play the Flute, and when he did, his pet Duck would appear. As Link learned, there was more to the tale. In the Haunted Grove of the Dark World, Link met a creature who gave him a shovel and told him how the boy had been placed under a spell. The Flute, said the monster, must be found if the spell is to be broken. Link dug everywhere in the Light World’s Haunted Grove until he found the Flute.

Flute Boy
After wandering into this world I turned into this shape. … … … I enjoyed playing the flute in the original world… … … … There was a small grove where many animals gathered. I want to see that place again… I buried my flute there with some flower seeds. Will you try to find it for me? ▶ Yes No way
Then I will lend you my shovel. Good luck!
Did you find my flute? … … … Please keep looking for it…
Thank you, Link. But it looks like I can't play my flute any more. Please take it. If by chance you go to the village I lived in, please give it to a tired old man you will find there. … … … Well, my mind is getting hazy… Please let me hear the sound of the flute one last time…
Flute Boy's Father
…mumble mumble… My son really liked to play the flute, but he went to look for the Golden Power and has not returned… … … I wonder where he is and what he is doing now?… … Zzzzzz Zzzzzz
…mumble mumble… Oh? This is my son's flute…! Did you meet my son? Where is he? Is he all right? … … … … Oh, I see… Well, I can tell what you want to say by the look in your eyes…
Would you keep the flute? And will you play its sweet melody for the bird in the village square? I beg of you, please! My son would probably want it this way… …But still, I wish I could see him once more…
