find the label text of required fields in selenium Webdriver

I am trying to print "Labels" of all the required fields on Console.

what I have done here is I am putting all the elements in the list and get it printed. But I am still unsure of what logic I should use of filtering only the required fields label.

   List<WebElement> list = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//div[@class='container']"));

         for(int i=0;i<list.size();i++){
             Thread.sleep(2000);
             String name =  list.get(i).getText();
           
            System.out.println(name);

           }

The above code is giving me a count as 0. Maybe I am wrong with the logic or understanding the whole concept.

here is the HTML :

<body>
    <div class="container">
        <div class="logo">
            <img src="https://www.sourcefuse.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Logo-Color.svg" alt="SourceFuse" class="img-responsive" />
        </div>
        <form>
            <div class="row">
                <div class="col-sm-6">

                        <div id="fnameInput"></div>
                    </div>

Your XPATH should be like this for finding the needed label

//span[@class = 'required']//..//..//label

You can write with you way like this:

List<WebElement> list = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//span[@class = 'required']//..//..//label"));

         for(int i=0;i<list.size();i++){
             Thread.sleep(2000);
             String name =  list.get(i).getText();
           
            System.out.println(name);

           }

Or if you are using Java 8 and above like this:

List<WebElement> list = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//span[@class = 'required']//..//..//label"));

list.stream().map(WebElement::getText).forEach(System.out::println);
