All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;

A light from the shadows shall spring.
Renewed shall be blade that was broken
The crownless again shall be king.

A new road or a secret gate
And though I oft have passed them by
A day will come at last when I
Shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon, East of the Sun.
