"The vengeance of Hell," the Queen of the Night's aria from Mozart's opera The Magic Flute (The Magic Flute).
| boil the hell revenge in my heart; | The vengeance of Hell boilsin my heart; |
| Death and despair flame around me! | blaze death and despair around me! |
| Feels Sarastro does not through you the pain of death, | If Sarastro does not feel the pangs of death through you, |
| you so you no longer my daughter. | then you are my daughter no more. |
| Disowned may you be forever, Abandoned may you be forever, | Be disowned for ever, be abandoned for ever, |
| be smashed forever All the bonds of nature, | shattered for ever be all the ties of nature, |
| if not by thee Sarastro becomes pale! | if Sarastro does not pale in death through you! |
| Hear, gods of vengeance! Hort der Mutter Schwur! | Hear, gods of vengeance! Hear a mother's vow! |
