In the land of shadow, where hope fades away
A ring was forged in fire, to bring eternal sway
Crafted by the Dark Lord, with power most obscene
Its whispers led to ruin, a nightmare's evil scheme

From the Shire to the mountain, the journey had begun
But darkness overtook them, and the quest was left undone

One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them
(we will find them)
One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them

Through forests deep and mountains high, the fellowship did roam
But treachery and sorrow turned their hearts to stone
The eye of Sauron watched them, his minions drew them near
And in their darkest moment, they succumbed to fear

The weight of burden crushed them, the shadows growing strong
Their hopes turned into ashes, the path of right to wrong

One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them
(we will find them, we will find them)
One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them

The light of Elven stars dimmed, and courage turned to dread
The land of Middle-earth fell, fell under Sauron's spread
In the heart of darkness, the ring's power grew
For the hope of Middle-earth, there was nothing they could do

The light of Elven stars dimmed, and courage turned to dread
(we will find them)
The Middle-earth fell, fell under Sauron's spread
In the end, the ring prevailed, its darkness spread like night
And the shadow covered all, snuffing out the light
The heroes' tales were silenced, their legacy betrayed
For the fall of Middle-earth, in darkness it stayed

One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them
One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them
