Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen

Papageno
A girl or a woman
Papageno wishes for himself!
Oh, such a gentle dove
Would be bliss for me!
Would be bliss for me!
Would be bliss for me!

Then drinking and eating would taste good to me
Then I could measure myself with princes
Rejoice in life as a wise man
And be like in Elysium
Then I could measure myself with princes
Rejoice in life as a wise man
And be like in Elysium
In Elysium
In Elysium

A girl or a woman
Papageno wishes for himself!
Oh, such a gentle dove
Would be bliss for me!
Would be bliss for me!
Would be bliss for me!

Ah, can I not please any
Of the charming girls?
Help one of them out of distress
Otherwise, I would truly grieve to death
Ah, can I not please any?
Help one of them out of distress
Otherwise, I would truly grieve to death
Grieve to death
Grieve to death

A girl or a woman
Papageno wishes for himself!
Oh, such a gentle dove
Would be bliss for me
Would be bliss for me
Would be bliss for me

If no one grants me love
Then the flame must consume me!
But if a female mouth kisses me
I am already healthy again
But if a female mouth kisses me
But if a female mouth kisses me
I am already healthy again
Already healthy again
Already healthy again
