If you're asking for fingerings, you probably have a ways to go before you tackle the GB variations.
@faranakkhanoom Most everyone just creates their own. You could purchase two or three different editions (Henle, etc) and see the differences in fingering.

If your aim is simply to play the the aria, then i think your goal is quite reachable.

Here's a link that discusses at length the importance of finding a good fingering:

keep in mind that everybody's hands are different and what works for one person may not work for another.

This link will have a collection of different editors' takes on the Goldbergs, as well as some fingering suggestions
