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.
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.

Skundavisk

Þree rings for ðe elfkynings under ðe heven,
Seven for ðe dwergherren in here haller out steen,
Neun for ðe sterflijken mænne, eewe to døþ orlagd,
Een for ðe Mørke Herr, up his mørke seet,
In ðet land Mordor, hwar ðe skaduws liggen.
Een ring, um hir alle te overheersen, een ring um hir te finden,
Een ring, um hir alle te bringen, and in ðe mørke hir binden,
In ðet land Mordor, hwar ðe skaduws liggen.

För Elfköngernem undar skyent hringar þrí

För Dværgherrernem í stenhallenar sjón

För þöðenbundnarm mænnernem ní

Ena för Mjörkherrem á sínenar mjörkþrón

Í Mordors lönðiritt, hvor lejer Skadyvi

Ena Hringa på allið hersa, på allið finder Ena Hringa

Ena Hringa på í dystiritt bindner og til þið allið bringa

Í Mordors lönðiritt, hvor lejer Skadyvi

Translation

For the Elf-Kings under the sky rings three

For the Dwarf-lords in stone-halls seven

For death-bound men nine

One for the Dark-lord on his dark-throne

In Mordor's land, where lie Shadows!

One Ring to rule all, to find all One Ring

One Ring to bind in darkness and to it all bring

In Mordor's land, where lie Shadows!
