Setting ringtone

I downloaded a song and it's in that little icon thing for music. How do I set it as my ringtone on my Iphone 5??? There is no option when I open that music icon to save it as a ringtone - the song will start playing when I open the icon.

This song was set as my ringtone on my last phone (don't know what it was, but it wasn't a smartphone).

Please do not give me some long, drawn out instructions because I'm not a computer/tech nerd.

Thanks.

Thanks, but this didn't do it. These instructions are to pay to buy a

song to get it as your ringtone. I have the song on my phone (in that

little orange music icon). I had it on my old phone - I emailed it to

myself and that's how I got it into that little music icon. I've never

bought anything off of iTunes so it did not come from there. I just

want to know how to get it from that little orange icon to be the

ringtone.

Ridiculous that I was obviously able to figure it out myself on an old

cell phone but it seems to be impossible to do it on a "smartphone".

Thanks anyway.

You have to transfer the song from the phone to the computer with the iTunes Store installed. Then on the computer, use iTunes to convert the song into a ringtone format compatible with your phone and use the iTunes program to push the ringtone file to the phone.
