"The Star" lyrics - DONOVAN

How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
When the blazing sun is gone
When he nothing shines upon
Then you show your little light
Twinkle, twinkle all the night.

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
'Tis your bright and tiny spark
Lights the traveller in the dark
Though I know not what you are
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
