Here are the lyrics to "Ah! Vous Dirai-je Maman" although I must say there were all sorts of lyrics out that that seemed to differ slightly:
Ah! vous dirai-je maman
Ce qui cause mon tourment.
Depuis que j'ai vu Silvandre,
Me regarder d'un aire tendre
Mon coeur dit a tout moment,
Peut-on vivre sans amant?
Il rougit mais par malheur,
Un soupir trahi son coeur.
La cruelle avec adresse
Profite de sa faiblesse;
Helas, maman! Un Faux pas
Le fai tomber dans ses bras.
Ce qui cause mon tourment.
Depuis que j'ai vu Silvandre,
Me regarder d'un aire tendre
Mon coeur dit a tout moment,
Peut-on vivre sans amant?
Il rougit mais par malheur,
Un soupir trahi son coeur.
La cruelle avec adresse
Profite de sa faiblesse;
Helas, maman! Un Faux pas
Le fai tomber dans ses bras.
Can anyone translate? Abby?
Also, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is super long. Check out the original poem, who knew?!:
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 traveller 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.
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.
How I wonder what you are.
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 traveller 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.
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.
How I wonder what you are.
