    		"Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" is a popular English nursery rhyme. It combines the tune of the French melody "Ah! vous dirai-je, Maman" (first published in 1761) with an English poem, "The Star", by Jane Taylor. The poem, which is in couplet form, was first published in 1806 in Rhymes for the Nursery, a collection of poems by Taylor and her sister Ann.
