Im Kampfe bewährt sich die tapfere Schar, Stellt furchtlos sich dem Feind entgegen. Beim Krach der Granaten, im Kugelregen Sind alle bereit, voll Freuden ihr Leben Zur Rettung des Vaterland's hinzugeben. Lasstienen uns unsern Dank beweisen! Kauft alle einen Nagel aus Eisen! Die kleine Münze, die jeder spende, Fliesst in bedürftige Invalidenhände. Für die Güte und Liebe der Armen u. Reichen Sei fürder der Wehrmann das ewige Zeichen! L und F Weiss. Budapest. [Hermannstadt Iron Soldier. This is the hard year, the iron year! In battle the brave troops are proving their metal, fearlessly opposing the enemy. Amidst the crash of grenades, the rain of bullets, all are ready joyfully to lay down their lives to save the Fatherland. Let us show our gratitude to those men! All buy an iron nail! The small coin each person donates goes to needy invalid hands. May the Soldier continue to be the eternal symbol for the kindness and love of poor and rich! L. and F. Weiss.
