This translation is awful. I'll try a better one, it will be far from perfect - and yet an improvement. Here we go:
"If the friends are well disposed |
the Fairy White will arch her bow, |
shoots my troubles in the face, |
and on both sides the mirror cracks, |
the father of all mirrors. ||
He beckons me, and I reach down, |
he whispers softly in my ear: ||
You are the most beautiful child of all, |
I'll keep you as blood of my own blood. |
You are the most beautiful child, |
In me even evil will be good. ||
Curiosity prolongs my dream, |
the Fairy White, she sings and laughs, |
having forced me into expectancy, |
and tormenting me throughout the night |
is the father of all mirrors. ||
You are the most beautiful child of all, |
I'll keep you as blood of my own blood. |
You are the most beautiful child, |
In me even evil will be good. ||
And as I defy the pain of birth, |
still whoring in the maternity bed, |
I watch myself as I give birth |
and devour my own afterbirth. ||
You are the most beautiful child... "
