Original text and translations
English text
The stars are tiny daisies high,
Opening and shutting in the sky;
While daisies are the stars below,
While daisies are the stars below,
Twinkling and sparkling as they grow.
The star-buds blossom in the night,
And love the moon’s calm, tender light;
But Daisies bloom out in the day,
And eatch the strong sun on his way.
