Luyện nghe bài hát 'Twas the Night Before Christmas

Twas the night Christmas
when all the house
Not a creature was
not even a

The were hung
by the chimney with
In that St Nicholas
soon be there

The were nestled
all snug in their
visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads

And in her 'kerchief
and I in my cap
Had settled our brains
for a winter's nap

When out on the
there arose a clatter
I sprang the bed
to see what was the

to the window
I flew a flash
Tore the shutters
and threw up the

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

When, to my
wondering eyes should
But a miniature
and eight tinny

a little old driver, so lively and quick
I in a moment
it must be St

rapid than eagles
his coursers they
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 that before
the wild fly
When meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky

So up to the
the they flew
With the full of Toys
and St too

And then, in a
I on the roof
The and pawing
of little hoof

As I drew in my
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 a peddler
just opening his

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

His droll little
was up like a bow
And the of his chin
was as white as the

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

He had a broad
and a round belly
shook when he laughed
like a of jelly!

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

A of his eye
and a twist of his
Soon me to know
I had nothing to

He spoke not a
but went to his work
And all the stockings
turned with a jerk

And laying his
aside of his
And a nod
up the he rose!

He sprang to his
to his team a whistle
And they all flew
like the down of a

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