*The Poem of Aragorn*
ALL THAT IS GOLD DOES NOT GLITTER--Aragorn is a king above all others to the people of Middle Earth, yet they overlook it because of his ruggedness, and label him as a ranger, and therefore to be treated with suspicion.
NOT ALL THOSE WHO WANDER ARE LOST--Aragorn goes many places about Middle Earth, and he knows the places he travels and does not lose his way.
THE OLD THAT IS STRONG DOES NOT WITHER--Aragorn lives to a very old age, being in his eighties when he helps Frodo and his companions during The War of the Ring. He is from an old and hardy people, however, and time has little effect on him.
DEEP ROOTS ARE NOT REACHED BY THE FROST--Not many can hurt Aragorn, not without great effort. The evils of the world (the frost) are hard pressed to reach the strong roots of his strength and wisdom. This makes me think of Aragorn as a kind of tree--tall, fair, and strong, not one that you can easily uproot, with a large canopy to shelter and protect many underneath it from evil.
FROM THE ASHES A FIRE SHALL BE WOKEN--This suggests the line of Numenor, almost dead, a pile of ashes, will be kindled again into a blazing glorious kingdom under Aragorn's guidance.
A LIGHT FROM THE SHADOWS SHALL SPRING--Through the shadows of Mordor and Sauron, Aragorn will be a light to all (and not just him, many others as well.
RENEWED SHALL BE BLADE THAT WAS BROKEN--This is (obviously) referring to Narsil, sword of Elendil, broken in the last alliance of men and elves in the Second Age of Middle Earth, used by Elendil's son, Isildur, to cut the One Ring from Sauron's hand. Andúril was the name of the sword when it was reforged for Isildur's descendent-Aragorn!
THE CROWNLESS AGAIN SHALL BE KING--Aragorn may have been reduced to a terrible state for a king, wandering about the countryside and secretly feared by ignorant townspeople while actually saving their lives, but that would be no longer. Now he will get the recognition he deserves, sitting on the throne of King of Gondor and Arnor, ruling the people with grace and wisdom.
(Tolkien 167 The Fellowship of the Ring)
