Luyện nghe bài hát The Night Before Christmas

'Twas the before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a
The stockings were by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon be there;
1,2,3,4 go, Dave, go we want to some more
The children nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums in their heads;
And in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had settled down for a long winter's nap,
When out on the lawn there such a clatter,
I sprang the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew a flash,
Open the shutters and up the sash.
The moon was shining on the snow
And it real bright on the ground below,
When, what to my wondering eyes appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and tiny reindeer,
With a old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a it must be St. Nick.
than eagles the reindeer came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called by name;
"Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now, and Vixen!
On, Comet! On Cupid! On, and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! away! dash away all!"
And then, in a twinkling, I on the roof
The and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my hand, and was around,
Down the chimney St. came with a bound.
He was all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished ashes and soot;
A bundle of he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler opening his pack.
His -- how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
His cheeks were roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was up like a bow,
And the beard of his was as white as the snow;
He had a broad and a little round belly,
That shook, like a of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a jolly old elf,
And I when I saw him, in spite of myself;
A of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to
He spoke not a word, but went to his work,
And filled all the then turned with a jerk,
And laying his aside of his nose,
And a nod, up the chimney he rose;
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team a whistle,
And away 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."
