On your journey you'll meet many dangers,
And many strangers
Most will become your friend
And stay with you until the end
But some will be led astray
And will betray
Your honourable trust
You must not let the ring
Return to it's king
This ring must be banned
Into a fire across many lands
Do not be led astray
And please don't delay
If you even slightly stray
You will never find your way
Later on the journey we will meet again
My small but brave friend
But you must always remember the ring
Can never go back to it's king
