Hier soll ich dich denn sehen, Belmonte's aria from Die Entführung aus dem Serail

Hier soll ich dich denn sehen,	Here then shall I see you,
Konstanze, dich mein Glück!	Constanze, my joy!
Lass, Himmel, es geschehen:	Heaven, let it come to pass :
Gib mir die Ruh zurück!		Restore my peace!
Ich duldete der Leiden, 	(O love, I have suffered 
	o Liebe, allzuviel!		all too many sorrows.)
Schenk' mir dafür nun Freuden	Now grant me joys in their stead
Und bringe mich ans Ziel.	and bring me to my goal.
