English translation:

"Oh tremble not, my dear son!
You are innocent, wise, pious.
A Young man such as you can best console
The deeply afflicted heat of a mother.

For suffering am I fated;
Because I miss my daughter,
All my happiness was lost with her.

A villain- A villain fled with her!
I still see her trembling with anxious agittion,
her nervous shivering, her timid struggles.

I had to watch as she was stolen from me,
"Oh help! Oh help!" Was all she could say;
But her pleading was in vain,
For I was too weak to help her.
I was too weak to help her.

You! You! You will go free her!
You will be my daughter's rescuer- yes!
And When I see you as the victor,
then she will be for ever yours.
She will for ever yours!
For ever yours!"
