Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,

Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,

Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

- The Old Walking Song

The Road goes ever on and on

Down from the door where it began.

Now far ahead the Road has gone,

And I must follow, if I can,

Pursuing it with weary feet,

Until it joins some larger way,

Where many paths and errands meet.

And whither then? I cannot say.

- Song in the Woods

Wanderers in the shadowed land

Despair not! For though dark they stand,

All woods there be must end at last,

And see the open sun go past:

The setting sun, the rising sun,

The day's end, or the day begun.

For east or west all woods must fail...

Oh! farewell, my journey awaits,

I'll see so many enchanted lands...

The Snow, The Desert, The Woods, The Mighty Falls,

The Dungeons, The Mines, The Castles, The Dark Land,

The Elves, The Dwarves, The Demons, The Nine in Black.

And I'll write so many songs

Oh! I say farewell my friends, wait for me

I Will return!

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,

One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

- Gandalf's Riddle of the Ents

Iron was found or tree was hewn,

When young was mountain under moon;

Ring was made, or wrought was woe,

It walked the forests long ago.

- Battle Cry

Mighty Riders now Arise!

Oh Feel deeds awake is fire!

Spear and shield shall be shaken,

Sun rises on this day of swords!

Oh! farewell, my journey awaits,

I'll see so many enchanted lands...

The Snow, The Desert, The Woods, The Mighty Falls,

The Dungeons, The Mines, The Castles, The Dark Land,

The Elves, The Dwarves, The Demons, The Nine in Black.

and I'll write so many songs

Oh! I say farewell my friends, wait for me

I Will return!

My quest awaits I will Prevail, I'll throw the ring where Mordor ends

The road is long, My thoughts are jails,

They'll Haunt me across the land, across the land.

Oh! farewell, my journey awaits,

I'll see so many enchanted lands...

The Snow, The Desert, The Woods, The Mighty Falls,

The Dungeons, The Mines, The Castles, The Dark Land,

The Elves, The Dwarves, The Demons, The Nine in Black.

And I'll write so many songs

Oh! I say farewell my friends, wait for me

I Will return
