Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star is an English nursery rhyme based on the melody of the 1761 French tune Ah! vous dirai-je, Maman. The lyrics come from a poem written by Jane Taylor and published in the 1806 book Rhymes For the Nursery where it was simply referred to as "The Star". In the United States, the melody line is also used to sing the alphabet.

Lyrics
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!
When the blazing sun is set,
And the grass with dew is wet,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.
Then if I were in the dark.
I would thank you for your spark;
I could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
