Whither shall I wander?

And in my lady’s chamber.

Who wouldn’t say his prayers,
So I took him by his left leg,
And threw him down the stairs.

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Posted on September 22, 2016 by admin Posted in Nursery Rhymes .

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star – Nursery Rhyme Twinkle Twinkle Little Star with Lyrics and Music

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!

When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon.
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

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

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

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.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!

As 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!

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

A beautiful lullaby that is recommended by rhymesonline.com

Tip: Why not learn more about the stars? They are so fascinating and exciting! Bring the kids to a place a little away from the light of the city on a night with clear sky. Try to lay down on the ground and study the stars. Can you see the asterisms? We recommend that you have a look in a star atlas/star chart before going out. And remember to sing Twinkle, Twinkle Litte Star before, after or while watching the sky! :)Don’t you remember the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star tune? Don’t worry!

To set before the king?

Eating bread and honey.

Hanging out the clothes.
When down came a blackbird
And pecked off her nose!
