Luyện nghe bài hát 'Twas the Night Before Christmas

Twas the before Christmas
when all through the
Not a was stirring
not even a

The stockings were
by the chimney with
In hopes St Nicholas
soon would be

The children were
all in their beds
While visions of danced in their heads

And mamma in her
and I in my cap
Had just our brains
for a long nap

out on the lawn
there such a clatter
I sprang the bed
to see was the matter

Away to the
I like a flash
open the shutters
and threw up the

The on the breast
of the new-fallen
Gave the lustre of
to objects

When, to my
eyes should appear
But a sleigh
and eight reindeer

With a old driver, so lively and quick
I knew in a
it must be St

More rapid eagles
his they came
And he whistled, and
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! Dash all!"

As dry leaves before
the hurricane fly
When they meet with an obstacle, to the sky

So up to the
the coursers they
the sleigh full of Toys
and St too

And then, in a
I on the roof
The prancing and
of each hoof

As I in my head
and was around
the chimney St Nicholas
came a bound

He was all in fur
from his to his foot
And his clothes all tarnished with ashes and soot

A bundle of
he had flung on his
And he looked like a
just his pack

His eyes-how twinkled!
his how merry!
His cheeks like roses
his nose a cherry!

His little mouth
was drawn up a bow
And the of his chin
was as white as the

The stump of a
he held tight in his
And the smoke it
his like a wreath

He had a face
and a little belly
shook when he laughed
like a of jelly!

He was chubby and
a right old elf
And I laughed I saw him, in spite of myself!

A of his eye
and a of his head
gave me to know
I had nothing to

He not a word
but straight to his work
And all the stockings
then turned with a

And his finger
of his nose
And a nod
up the he rose!

He sprang to his
to his gave a whistle
And they all flew
the down of a thistle

But I heard him
'ere he drove out of
"Happy to all
and to all a good-night!"
