Since the Moon moves across the sky about 12 degrees per night, there will be no bright star near the Moon "every night". Last night (September 11, 2009) the Moon was fairly close the Betelgeuse, the red giant star at the shoulder of Orion. Tonight, September 12, 2009, the Moon will be very near the planet Mars. Both have a similar reddish color to them.

Canopus is a very bright star. It is in the southern constellation of Carina.
The same reason it gives light to the Earth - the Sun shines on the moon too.
