Luyện nghe bài hát The Night Before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the
Not a was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the with care,
In that St. Nicholas soon would be there.

The children nestled all snug in their beds,
While of sugar-plums danced in their heads.
And in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our for a long winter's nap.

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

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

a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it be St Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers 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 that before the wild hurricane fly,
they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
So up to the house-top the coursers flew,
the sleigh full of Toys, and St Nicholas too.

And then, in a twinkling, I on the roof
The and pawing of each little hoof.
As I in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St Nicholas came a bound.

He was dressed all in fur, from his to his foot,
And his clothes were all with ashes and soot.
A bundle of he had flung on his back,
And he looked a peddler, just opening his pack.

His eyes-how they twinkled! his how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his like a cherry!
His droll mouth 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 and a little round belly,
That shook he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly!

He was chubby and plump, a jolly 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 know I had to dread.

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

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