To be able to theme the "Previous" and "Next" controls text on a Views Slideshow with template preprocess functions, we need to make the text available as variables to the preprocess functions and the template files. A patch for this feature is available in the comments.

Preprocess Functions

template_preprocess_views_slideshow_controls_text_previous
template_preprocess_views_slideshow_controls_text_next

Template Files

theme/views-slideshow-controls-text-next.tpl.php
theme/views-slideshow-controls-text-previous.tpl.php

I'd suggest just overriding the template in your theme or module.
