st: How to extract text from Labels

Dear Statalisters,
I have a problem with labels.
In my Dataset are single items (binary) from a multiple option question.
The label format of this variables are “[Text1]Text2”. Now I want to
relabel the variables only with the Text in the square brackets (Text1).
Any ideas for a syntax that i can use in a foreach-loop?
Thanks a lot,
Jörg
