Luyện nghe bài hát 'Twas The Night Before Christmas

Twas the before Christmas, when all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring, not a mouse.
The stockings hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes St. Nicholas soon would be there.

And in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled for a long winter's nap.

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

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

With a old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers came,
And he and shouted, and called them by name.

Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now Prancer, 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!

So up to the the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh of toys and St. Nicholas too.
And then, in a twinkling, I on the roof,
The prancing and pawing of little hoof.

As I drew in my head, and was around,
Down the chimney he with a bound.

He was dressed all in fur, his head to his foot,
And his were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A of toys 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 roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was up like a bow,
And the beard on his was as white as the snow.

The stump of a he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head a wreath.

He had a broad face and a little belly,
That shook when he laughed, like a full of jelly.
He was and plump, a right 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 straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings, then turned a jerk,
And laying his finger of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the he rose.

He sprang to his to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, as he out of sight,

Merry Chrisrmas to all and to all a night
