Celebration
Feieromd is one of the most famous folk songs in the Ore Mountains . It comes from the pen of the folk poet Anton Günther and was created in 1903.
The text, written in the Ore Mountains dialect, is common in various transcriptions. The author Anton Günther himself wrote the title Feieromd , later Feierohmd , and ultimately smoothed it down to Feierobnd for the book edition of his songs .
The song addresses the end of the day . The stanzas describe the environment and the state of health. It is often played at funeral services in the Ore Mountains. Often the word grave is replaced by forest in the last stanza .
text
1. There is no sunshine in the forest over there, |
1. The sun rises behind the forest over there, |
melody
The melody is reproduced below in the original version with several bar changes. In later versions the rhythm is often smoothed into a continuous 4/4 time.
reception
In Erich Loest's book Nikolaikirche , which was filmed in 1995 , the local popularity of this song is mockingly attributed to "local inbreeding and iodine deficiency ", which would have "produced cretins up there" in addition to that of Dar Vuglbärbaam and the Erzgebirge anthem .
The Bavarian music and satirical group Biermösl Blosn processed the song in their capitalism-critical song Orgie im Bank Vault .
