Csordapásztorok
The Csordapásztorok (meaning Shepherds in English) is one of the oldest Hungarian Christmas carols. Its lyrics (with the note "old song") can be found in Benedek Szőlősy's book, the Cantus Catholici, which was first published in 1651. Its music was first recorded in the Deák-Szentes manuscript, which was written between 1741 and 1774 by Mózes Szentes.
