Lyrics
When all nature goes to sleep
Master Cupid starts to peep
Love-chimes ringing Love’s Sweet Song
Happy happy hours
For the birds and flowers
Time for love is drawing near
Mating time is here
Now that day is done
Two hearts beat as one
While the moon and stars appear
Chorus
Shades of night are falling
Hear the love-birds calling
From the trees above
Sweethearts silhouetting
Time and care forgetting
In the spell of love
Twinkle, twinkle little Love-star
Twinkle while the moon beams with delight
Nighttime casting shadows over golden meadows
Love-time comes with shades of night
