Luyện nghe bài hát 'Twas the Night Before Christmas

Twas the night Christmas
when all through the
Not a creature was
not a mouse

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

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

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

When out on the
arose such a clatter
I from the bed
to see was the matter

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

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

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

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

rapid than 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! away all!"

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

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

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

As I drew in my
and was turning
Down the St Nicholas
with a bound

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

A of Toys
he had flung on his
And he like a peddler
just his pack

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

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

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

He had a face
and a little belly
That when he laughed
a bowlful of jelly!

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

A of his eye
and a twist of his
gave me to know
I had to dread

He spoke not a
but went straight to his
And filled all the
then with a jerk

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

He to his sleigh
to his team gave a
And they all flew
the down of a thistle

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