Three Rings for the celestial Elven-kings,
Seven Rings for the Dwarves of stone palaces,
Nine Rings for the mortals whose days are numbered,
The Chosen Ring for the Devil of the dark throne -
In the Land of Mordor, the Shadows' dwelling.
The Chosen Ring [shall] find [them] all and be their master,
The Chosen Ring [shall] gather and envelop [them] in the darkness -
In the Land of Mordor, the Shadows' dwelling.
