Hi! I was looking into a bundle of sheet music I once bought in Budapest, and my eye fell on this song called Jársz-e még Budára alkonyatkor?. Seems like some older folkore song. I was if anybody knew how old the song is, and if it is somewhat popular in Hungary? Does anyone have a online recording of the song?

It's a song written by K. Kovács & Z. Somlyó, apparently...

I've never heard of it before, but honestly to me it sounds like something from around the 1890s-1930s.
I cannot find any online recordings, but from the title it definitely doesn't sound like a traditional folk song.
