Luyện nghe bài hát 'Twas the Night Before Christmas

Twas the before Christmas
all through the house
Not a creature was
not a mouse

The stockings were
by the with care
In that St Nicholas
soon would be

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

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

out on the lawn
there arose such a
I from the bed
to see what was the

Away to the
I flew like a
Tore open the
and threw up the

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

When, to my
wondering eyes appear
But a miniature
and eight reindeer

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

More rapid eagles
his coursers came
And he whistled, and
and called 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 away! Dash away! Dash away all!"

As dry that before
the hurricane fly
When meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky

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

And then, in a
I heard on the
The prancing and
of little hoof

As I drew in my
and was around
Down the St Nicholas
came a bound

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

A of Toys
he had flung on his
And he looked a peddler
opening his pack

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

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

The of a pipe
he tight in his teeth
And the smoke it
his head a wreath

He had a broad
and a round belly
That when he laughed
a bowlful 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 twist of his
Soon me to know
I had nothing to

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

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

He sprang to his
to his team a whistle
And away all flew
the down of a thistle

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