Luyện nghe bài hát The Night Before Christmas

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

The were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in 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 such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see was the matter.
Away to the i flew like a flash,
open the shutters and threw up the sash.

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

With a little old driver, so and quick,
I knew in a moment it be st nick.
More than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and them 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! away all!"

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

And then, in a twinkling, i on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each hoof.
As i in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney st came with a bound.

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

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

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

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

He not a word, but went straight 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 to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But i heard him exclaim, 'ere he out of sight,
"happy to all, and to all a good-night!
