4. Von der Freundlichkeit der Welt  [sung text not yet checked]

Auf die Erde, voller kaltem Wind
kamt ihr alle als ein nacktes Kind,
Frierend lagt ihr ohne alle Hab',
als ein Weib euch eine Windel gab.

Keiner schrieb euch, ihr wart nicht begehrt,
und man holte euch nicht im Gefährt.
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 Hände Erde gibt.
