The DGN reader will read the text objects. You can filter out those objects with the GeometryFilter, selecting text in the Output Types.

Use attribute exposer transformer. Expose attributes "igds_text_string" or "fme_text_string"

and then you can use Labeller or LabelPointReplacer to plot it and write to the attribute exposerdestination.
