Turin the one-legged soldier
Had to lean upon his blade --
No Elf or dwarf could help him
(as prosthetics were not yet made).

All of the other soldiers
Used to laugh and call him names.
They wouldn't let poor Turin
Play in any warrior games.

Then one day in Doriath
Thingol came to say,
"Melian with your girdle tight,
Oh please help Turin stand up right."

Then all the soldiers loved him
As they watched him marching off with glee.
"Now that Turin can go fight Glaurung,
We will not be history!"
