Von der Freundlichkeit der Welt (Bertold Brecht 1921) Auf die Erte voller kaltem Wind Kamt ihr alle als ein nacktes Kind. Frierend lagt ihr ohne alle Hab Als ein Weib euch eine Windel gab. Keiner schrie euch, ihr wart nicht begehrt Und man holte euch nicht im Gefaehrt. Hier auf Erden wart ihr unbekannt Als ein Mann euch einst nahm an der Hand. Von der Erde voller kaltem Wind Geht ihr all bedeckt mit Schorf und Grind. Fast ein jeder hat die Welt geliebt, Wenn man ihm zwei Haende Erde gibt.
