Text

Die Geburt uses a text by an unknown author.

{{Lang>de|Es landet ein Fremdling im Hafen der Welt,

Hat Mangel an allem, an Nahrung und Geld.

O Fremdling, o setze den Fuß auf das Land,

Wir reichen dir alle so freundlich die Hand.

Herein, herein, herein,

Sollst lieber Verwandter uns sein.

Und hast du das deine dann redlich getan,

So kannst du dem Vater im Himmel dich nah'n,

Dann preisen dich Menschen und freuen sich dein

Und wiegen im schlummernden Grabe dich ein.

Zur Ruh', zur Ruh', zur Ruh,

So gehörst du der Heimat dann zu.}}

A stranger landed in the harbour of the world,

Had lack at everything, food and money.

O stranger, put your foot on the land,

We all reach out so friendly to you.

Come in, come in, come in,

You will be our dear relative.

And once you did your duty fairly,

Then you can approach the Father in the Heaven,

Then people praise you and enjoy you,

And cradle you in the slumbering grave.

To rest, to rest, to rest,

So you belong to the [heavenly] homeland.

Music

The 25-bar long work in D-flat major is scored for {{abbr|TTBB|tenor and bass}} choir. The {{lang|de|feurige}} (ardent) first 12 bars, in periods of 4 bars, have to be repeated three times.^[3] From bar 13, Und hast du das deine dann redlich getan, the Schubert-like song evolves slower to the end.^[2]
