The image resolution is just not sufficient for reading all of this, but luckily I (eventually) found it on FamilySearch: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HT-6LFS-6K2?i=572&cat=274364

Now I have an ear-worm:

Szélről legeljetek, fának ne menjetek
Mert ha fának nekimentek, fejeteket beveritek
Szili kút, szanyi kút, szentandrási sobri kút

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL_0NMGSMis

(It's a nonsense song/round:

Graze from the edge, don't run into trees
Because if you run into trees, you'll hit your heads
Well of Szil, well of Szany, well of Szentandrás of Sobor.

It was a favorite at Hungarian school [in the U.S.] because of _Szili_ "of/from Szil", which sounds very much like "silly".)
