Dvorak was skillful composer of the Romantic Era, and wrote quite a bit of music he will be remembered for. One of his symphonies, the Symphony #9 in E Minor is commonly called the "New World" symphony, having been written in the United States. Some old editions of his works number this symphony as #5 but it is properly #9.
Dvorak's most famous symphony is No. 9, "From the New World."
According to the liner notes from the Columbia Records release (1950?), Dvorak wrote the New World Symphony from December 19, 1892 through May 25, 1893, while he was the director of the (at that time recently founded) National Conservatory of Music in New York.Among his students at the Conservatory was H. T. Burleigh, later to become a prominent baritone, composer and arranger. Burleigh spent long hours with Dvorak, singing and playing for him many Negro spirituals and slave songs. These completely captivated the master and served as an important inspiration for him to compose his New World Symphony.

your butt stinks jaja lolFrom the New World is the correct answer
The "Symphony From the New World" is Antonin Dvorak's ninth symphony. It was so called because he was working and living in the U.S., and because he purposely adopted the style of American folk songs while writing it. He succeeded so well that many people think the song "Goin' Home," which is set to the theme from the Symphony's second movement, is a real folk song.

It appears that the lyrics were written by neither. Henry Burleigh adapted Dvorak's composition into the song, but William Arms Fisher wrote the lyrics. Actually, Dvorak incorporated the tune of the Negro spiritual "Goin' Home" into his New World Symphony. "Goin' Home" existed before Dvorak wrote his symphony. Dvorak lived in the US for a few years, and found himself very drawn to this melody, so he used it.
