| Reverse lettering | Schriftsteller: Victor Blüthgen * 4.1.1844 i. Zörbig † 2.4.1920 i. Berlin. Geld aus Metall fehlt überall. Auferstehn! Die Glocken rufen Wieder in die kranke Welt, Wo auf allen Leidensstufen Unsre Hoffnung fasten hält. Auf sein Ostern harrt vergebens Noch der Menschheit bestes Teil, Das der Fasching eitlen Strebens Heut noch führt am Narrenseil. II. Auferstehn – nur nicht verzagen: Glockenklang – Verheißungsklang Jeder Winter muß nach Tagen, Und dann gibt es Lerchensang. Ihr gequälten, leiderwählten Kinder dieser harten Zeit: Ostern kommt – den Notgesühlten Kommt der Lenz zu seiner Zeit! Fünfundzwanzig Pfennig So helfen wir uns mit Papier. |
