Oh prince, take this prized gift from me! Bestowed to you by our dear Queen. The Magical Flute will protect thee, In great misfortune your weapon be. Now you wield the power of a storm, All the human passions to transform, The sad one will experience joy, The bachelor, a love-struck boy. Oh such a splendid flute, is worth more than crowns and pure gold, It multiplies human joy, forever and manifold.
