Lyrics
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
To express admiration for a small, shining celestial object
How I wonder what you are
Expressing curiosity about the nature or identity of the star
Up above the world so high
Describing the star's position in the sky, far above the Earth
Like a diamond in the sky
Comparing the star's brilliance to that of a diamond in the sky
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Reiteration of the admiration for the small, shining star
Twinkle, twinkle
Repeated expressions of twinkling, emphasizing the star's radiance
Twinkle, twinkle
-Twinkle, twinkle
-Twinkle, twinkle
-Twinkle, twinkle
-Twinkle, twinkle
-Twinkle, twinkle
-Little star
-Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Repetition of admiration and wonder for the small, shining star
How I wonder what you are
Continued expression of curiosity about the star's identity
Up above the world so high
Reiteration of the star's high position in the sky
Like a diamond in the sky
Restating the comparison of the star's brilliance to a diamond
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Final expression of admiration for the small, twinkling star
How I wonder what you are
Repeating the curiosity about the star's nature or identity
