I want to post the whole opera, but it's way too long, and I don't think youtube will allow a video of 3 hours. Dunno, but I'll try to upload it. If not, I shall upload by parts. This is Scene 8: A garden
Papageno despairs at having lost Papagena and decides to hang himself (Aria/Quartet: "Papagena! Papagena! Papagena!") The three child-spirits appear and stop him. They advise him to play his magic bells to summon Papagena. She appears and, united, the happy couple stutter in astonishment. They plan their future and dream of the many children they will have together (Duet: "Pa ... pa ... pa ...").
The traitorous Monostatos appears with the Queen of the Night and her three ladies. They plot to destroy the temple ("Nur stille, stille") and the Queen confirms that she has promised her daughter Pamina to Monostatos. But before the conspirators can enter the temple, they are magically cast out into eternal night.
Scene 9: The Temple of the Sun
Sarastro announces the sun's triumph over the night. Everyone praises the courage of Tamino and Pamina in enduring their trials, gives thanks to Isis and Osiris and hails the dawn of a new era of wisdom and brotherhood.
Watch videos with other singers performing Nur stille! stille!:
MOHR Nur stille! stille! stille! stille! Bald dringen wir in Tempel ein.
ALLE WEIBER Nur stille! stille! stille! stille! Bald dringen wir in Tempel ein.
MOHR Doch, Fürstinn, halte Wort! - Erfülle - Dein Kind muss meine Gattinn seyn.
KÖNIGINN Ich halte Wort; es ist mein Wille.
ALLE WEIBER Mein / Ihr Kind soll deine Gattin seyn.
Man hört dumpfen Donner, Geräusch von Wasser.
MOHR Doch still, ich höre schrecklich rauschen, Wie Donnerton und Wasserfall.
KÖNIGINN, DAMEN Ja, fürchterlich ist dieses Rauschen, Wie fernen Donners Wiederhall.
MOHR Nun sind sie in des Tempels Hallen:
ALLE Dort wollen wir sie überfallen, - Die Frömmler tilgen von der Erd Mit Feuersgluth und mächt'gem Schwert. Dir, grosse Königinn der Nacht, Sey unsrer Rache Opfer gebracht.
Man hört den stärksten Accord, Donner, Blitz, Sturm. Sogleich verwandelt sich das ganze Theater in eine Sonne. Sarastro steht erhöht; Tamino, Pamina, beyde in priesterlicher Kleidung. Neben ihnen die ägyptischen Priester auf beyden Seiten. Die drey Knaben halten Blumen.
MOHR, KÖNIGINN Zerschmettert, zernichtet ist unsere Macht, Wir alle gestürzet in ewige Nacht. sie versinken

MONOSTATOS Just keep quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet! Soon we shall be making our way into the temple.
QUEEN OF THE NIGHT, THE THREE LADIES Just keep quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet! Soon we shall be making our way into the temple.
MONOSTATOS But, Sovereign Lady, keep your word! Fulfil ... Your daughter must be my wife.
QUEEN OF THE NIGHT I'll keep my word! It is my will. My daughter shall be your wife.
THE THREE LADIES Her child shall be your wife.
MONOSTATOS Quiet though! I hear a terrible roaring, like the sound of thunder and a waterfall.
QUEEN OF THE NIGHT, THE THREE LADIES Yes, this roaring is terrible, like the echo of distant thunder.
MONOSTATOS Now they are in the temple halls,
ALL There let us surprise them, wipe the bigots from the face of the earth with burning fire and strong sword.
THE THREE LADIES, MONOSTATOS To you, great Queen of the Night, we make our offering of vengeance!
thunder, lightning, tempest
ALL Our strength is shattered, destroyed, we are all plunged into eternal night!
They disappear.
