In The Land of Lorien

In The House of Elrond

At The Gulf of Lune

Setting of With Cirdan

Traveling With Olorin

By the speed of Shadowfax

Warring on the Dark Lord

In his seat in Mordor

Through the Mines of Moria

and the Waste of Emyn Muil

To the Cracks of Doom

with heavy burdendened Frodo

To the seat of Denethor

In the Land of Gondor

To see brave Aragorn

Justly take his power

Ash Nazg Durbatuluk No More

Ash Nazg Gimbatul No More

Ash Nazg Thrakatuluk No More

Agh Burzum Ishi Krimpatul No More

Fighting darkness everywhere

Making room for light

Helping people everywhere

Help the cause of right

And helping people everywhere

Find the joy they’ve longed for

by helping people everywhere

Keep that joy in sight

* notes on the Shire Calendar

In 1230 Shire Reform declared that Mid-years day would have no weekday. This reform was enacted so that all dates would fall on the same day of the week in all years

The last day of the Shire year was the winter solstice

The first day of the Shire year was the day following the winter solstice

Ash nazg durbatulûk

ash nazg gimbatul

ash nazg thrakatulûk

agh burzum ishi krimpatul

One ring to rule them all

one ring to find them

one ring to bring them

all and in the darkness bind them
