Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star is one of the most popular English nursery rhymes. It combines the tune of the 1761 French melody "Ah ! vous dirai-je, Maman" (written by Mozart) 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.
Jane Taylor has been credited with writing the song.

It is often thought that Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was the original writer of this melody. Reinforced by its appearance as a "correct answer" in the original edition of Trivial Pursuit and "Snapple Facts" (among others), many believe that the song was written by Mozart when he was four or five years old (as "Andante in C for Keyboard"). Mozart was this age at the time the original French melody was written. Much later in his life, it is certain that he did write twelve variations on it; these variations are listed as Variations on "Ah vous dirais-je, Maman" (later K. 300e - see below) in the Köchel-Verzeichnis.[2][3]
Another well-known misconception appears to be that all sets of words to this tune could be qualified as nursery rhymes. On the contrary, the original French version of the text was not intended for children's ears; see below.

It was the tune of the 1761 French melody "Ah ! vous dirai-je, Maman". Later popularized by Mozart in his Theme and Variations (K265), written in 1781-82.
