Thanks for the danish and the french versions.
That's a good idea, Arwen! I don't know a word french, but i can try to translate the danish...

Tre har elvernes konge i dybeste skove,
Three have the kings of the elves in the deepest forests

syv har dværgenes herrer i sale af sten,
seven have the dwarf lords in halls of stone

Ni har mennesket dødeligt, dømt til at sove,
nine have men mortal, doomed to sleap

Én har den natsorte fyrste for ondskab og mén
one has the nightblack lord of evil and... men?

I Mordors land, hvor skygger ruge.
In the land of Mordor, where shadows lies on eggs.*

Én Ring over dem alle, én Ring kan finde de andre
One ring over them all, one ring can find the others

Én Ring kan bringe dem alle, i mørket lænke dem alle
One ring can bring them all, in the dakness link them all

I Mordors land hvor skygger ruger.
In the land of mordor where shadows lies on eggs.*


*The reason of why I translated "ruger" with "lies on eggs" is that I suppose that "ruger" in Danish is the same as "ruvar" in Swedish, and "ruvar" can also be when a bird lies on her eggs to keep them warm.

Now you guys can try the Swedish one!
