This link shows the recipe as well.
I used to eat this every month, as my grandmother made it for us.



I liked the rimes and note of the song, but I hated the text. So I made a new, more like a cooking folk child song....



 Original:

1.

Hull a szilva a fáról

Most jövök a tanyáról

Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

2.

Egyik ága lehajkott

Az én rózsám elhagyott

Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

3.

Ha elhagyott egy hétre

Elhagyom én kettőre

Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

4.

Ha ő elhagy kettőre

Elhagyom én örökre

Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

5.

Kis kalapom fekete

Páva tolla van benne

Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce



New version:

1.

Hull a szilva a fáról
Most jövök a tanyáról
Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

2.
Megújult a szilvafa
Megújult a szilvafa
Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

3.
Kivirágzott az égig
Kivirágzott az égig
Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

4.
Meg is lett a gyümölcse
Meg is lett a gyümölcse
Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

5.
Leszedtem a gyümölcsöt
Leszedtem a gyümölcsöt
Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

6.
Lekvárt főztem belőle
Lekvárt főztem belőle
Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

7.
Bukta, bukta, lekváros bukta
Kisütöttem a buktát
Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

8.
Mind megettük a buktát
Mind megettük a buktát
Ej haj ruca ruca kukorica derce

 I started to study music as a child from my grandmother, in the nursery, kindergartner and then in primary school.  That is me, around 1986, when I was 1 year old. My mother's mother on the left, and next to her, her step mother, who was my Vonatos dédi. I loved her as a great-grandmother, her nick name was Train Granny, as she traveled from the other side of the country by train to visit us. I studied first from them to sing. Nursery school in Derecske, Hungary in 1988. At this point, I loved to play on my xylophone, drums, mundklaver in Danish or melodica in English. I also had 24-hole harmonica, tremolo harmonica. It is me, around year 3 with my xylophone and radio.

 How to find notes? There are a lot of sources and solutions, digital and physical as well. I will show now a few, that I used this morning to get inspiration to my #7 Tirol short imporvisation. 1. https://musescore.com/ Tirol Concerto - Movement II (Piano Arrangement) Sheet Music for Piano (Solo) | MuseScore.com Here you can the notes or music sheet and play the song, plus you can follow the keybord as well. It is a 3:1 solution. Pay attention to the pattern and get inspired. How? - speed  - steps between the notes - repetation Then decide what is working for you, what you would like to do differently. 2. https://www.all-sheetmusic.com/ Tirol-Concerto by Philip Glass » Piano Sheet Music As you see, it is the same song on a different website with different options. This one has a description like  Tirol: Concerto for Piano and Orchestra by Philip Glass was premiered at the Klanspuren Festival in Tirol, Austria and written with the support of the Stuttgart Chambe...
