Good-night little stars
L. Lehmann
I am getting drowsy;
I was up with the rising sun,
And the old Dutch clock on the staircase
Has just struck one.
Good-night, little stars, good-night,
How you twinkle and peep and stare!
I know it is terribly, terribly late,
Good-night little stars up there.
The night-breeze blows through my window;
To my little white bed I'll creep.
You'll only have time to twinkle twice
Before I am fast asleep.
