"Das Glühwürmchen", known in English as "The Glow-Worm", is a song from #PaulLincke's 1902 operetta Lysistrata, with #German lyrics by #HeinzBoltenBackers. In the operetta, it is performed as a trio with three female solo voices singing alternately and the women's chorus joining in the refrain. Rhythmically, it is in the form of a #gavotte. The song, with its familiar chorus, was translated into English and became an American #popularSong.
