The "Huron Carol" (or "'Twas in the Moon of Wintertime") is a Canadian Christmas
hymn (Canada's oldest Christmas song), written in 1643 by Jean de Brébeuf, a Jesuit
missionary at Sainte-Marie among the Hurons in Canada. Brébeuf wrote the lyrics in the native language of the Huron/Wendat people; the song's original Huron title is "Jesous Ahatonhia" ("Jesus, he is born"). The song's melody is based on a traditional French
folk song, "Une Jeune Pucelle" ("A Young Maid").
