Luyện nghe bài hát T'Was The Night Before Christmas

'Twas the night before and all through the house
Not a was stirring, not even a mouse
The stockings were by, the chimney with care in hopes that
St. Nicholas would soon be

The children were all nestled, all snug in their beds
Visions of sugarplums in their heads

And in her kerchief and I in my cap
Had just settled down for a winter's nap
When out on the lawn there arose such a
I sprang my bed to see what was the matter!

to the window, I flew like a flash
Tore open the shutters and threw up the

The on the breast of the new fallen snow
Gave the luster of to objects below
what to my wandering eyes should appear
But a miniature sleigh and eight reindeer!

With a ol' driver so lively and quick
I knew in a moment, it be St. Nick!

More rapid than eagles, his courses they
As he whistled and shouted and called by name
Now Dasher, now Dancer, now Prancer and
On Comet, on Doner, an'

To the top of the porch, to the top of the

His drawl little was drawn up like a bow
And the beard of his chin was as white as the

The stump of a pipe, he held tight in his
And the smoke it circled his head a wreath

He had a broad little and a, a little round belly
shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly
He was chubby and plump, and a, a jolly old elf
I laughed I saw him in spite of myself

A wink of his eye and a twist of his
Soon gave me to know I had to dread

He spoke not a word but went to his work
And filled all the stockings, and then turned with a
An' laying a finger aside his nose
An' giving a nod up the chimney he

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a
An' away they all flew the down of a thistle

But I him exclaim as he drove out of sight
Christmas to all, Merry Christmas to all
And to all a
