Twinkle twinkle little star

Source: Wiki

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,
How I wonder what you are!

Thought of this song yesterday after hearing a particular song. The image that came into my mind though is my brother singing it haha. Because that day, I had asked him why Twinkle twinkle little star's melody is the same as the ABC song. (I guess some of you should be singing the ABC song now too haha.)

Anyway from wiki, I found out Ba Ba Black Sheep uses the same melody too. Yeah I am singing Ba Ba Black Sheep now in my mind..

I quite like the original poem:
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 gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.

Then the traveler in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.

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.

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