英文原版：

Sam: It’s me. It’s your Sam. Don’t you know your Sam?

(Frodo falls backwards, hitting a wall and dropping his sword.)

Frodo: I can’t do this, Sam.

Sam: I know. It’s all wrong. By rights, we shouldn’t even be here. (looks out the window.) But we are. (Sees the Nazgûl fly away.) It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end because how could the end be happy? (Shows the Uruk-Hai army running for their lives at Helm’s Deep.) (v.o.) How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened?

Sam: (v.o.) But in the end, it’s only a passing thing this shadow. (Shows Isengard flooding) Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you that meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now.

(Shows Sam again at the window.)

Sam: Fold in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going because they were holding on to something.

Frodo: What are we holding on to Sam?

(Sam pulls Frodo up off the ground.)

Sam: There is some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.

中文翻譯：

山姆：是我，我是山姆，你看清是我了嗎？

佛羅多：我堅持不住了，山姆

山姆：我知道，這是個錯誤。實際上我們本不該來這，可我們來了。就像在古老的傳說中，那些真正的傳說，裡面籠罩著黑暗和危險，有時你不想知道結局，因為怎麼可能有快樂的結局呢。當發生這麼多可怕的事情以後，這世界怎麼可能回到從前呢？

不過說到底，危險早晚都會過去，黑暗也會過去，黎明終將到來。當太陽再次升起的時候，也會散發出更加明亮的光芒。這些友誼的傳說都在你的心裡，即使你年齡太小還無法理解，可是我覺得，佛羅多，我能明白，我現在能理解。傳說中的人物，都有機會回頭，但是他們不肯。他們一直向前，因為他們都有自己的信念。

佛羅多：我們的信念是什麼，山姆？

山姆：我相信這世上一定存在著某些美好，值得我們為之奮戰到底。
