Stars are light, stars are bright,
First star that I see tonight,
Wish I may, wish I might,

Have the wish I wish tonight.
Wish I may, wish I might
Have the wish I wish tonight.

Stars are light, stars are bright,
Shine on, stars, shine on,
Stars are light, stars are bright,

Shine on, stars, shine on.
"Maiden fair, golden hair,
What wish do you breathe in air?"

"Please don't ask, I beg of you.
If I tell, it won't come true."
"Please don't ask, I beg of you.

If I tell, it won't come true."
Stars are light, stars are bright,
Shine on, stars, shine on,

Stars are light, stars are bright,
Shine on, stars, shine on.
"Pretty maid," then I said:

"Always look right overhead,
Keep your eye on your sky,
You'll succeed if you aim high.

Keep your eye on the sky,
You'll succeed if you aim high."
Stars are light, stars are bright,

Shine on, stars, shine on,
Stars are light, stars are bright,
Shine on, stars, shine on.
