Luyện nghe bài hát The Night Before Christmas

Twas the night christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not a mouse.
The stockings were by the chimney with care,
In hopes that st nicholas soon be there.

The children were nestled all in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums in their heads.
And in her 'kerchief, and i in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a winter's nap.

When out on the lawn there arose a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see was the matter.
Away to the i flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and up the sash.

The moon on the of the new-fallen snow
the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight reindeer.

With a little old driver, so and quick,
I in a moment it must be st nick.
More rapid than his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called by name!

"now dasher! now, dancer! now, and vixen!
On, comet! on, cupid! on, on and blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash all!"

As dry leaves that the wild hurricane fly,
When meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
So up to the house-top the they flew,
With the sleigh of toys, and st nicholas too.

And then, in a twinkling, i heard on the
The prancing and of each little hoof.
As i drew in my head, and was around,
Down the chimney st nicholas with a bound.

He was dressed all in fur, his head to his foot,
And his were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A bundle of toys he had on his back,
And he like a peddler, just opening his pack.

His they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose a cherry!
His droll little mouth was up like a bow,
And the beard of his was as white as the snow.

The stump of a he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his like a wreath.
He had a broad face and a little belly,
shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly!

He was chubby and plump, a jolly old elf,
And i when i saw him, in spite of myself!
A wink of his eye and a of his head,
Soon me to know i had nothing to dread.

He spoke not a word, but went to his work,
And filled all the stockings, then with a jerk.
And laying his finger of his nose,
And a nod, up the chimney he rose!

He sprang to his sleigh, to his gave a whistle,
And away they all like the down of a thistle.
But i him exclaim, 'ere he drove out of sight,
"happy to all, and to all a good-night!
