Tune of the Day: Bewahret euch vor Weibertücken
from Mozart's “The Magic Flute”, arranged for two flutes
This duet is sung by two priests during Act II of Mozart's famous opera Die Zauberflöte (The Magic Flute).
Beware women's artfulness;
This is the first duty of the alliance!
Many a wise man let himself be beguiled,
He was wrong, and knew not the error;
Abandoned he sat, at the end,
His trust repaid with scorn!
