Luyện nghe bài hát 'Twas the Night Before Christmas

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

The were hung
by the chimney care
In hopes that St
would be there

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

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

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

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

The moon on the
of the snow
Gave the of mid-day
to below

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

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

More rapid than
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! away all!"

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

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

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

As I drew in my
and was turning
the chimney St Nicholas
came with a

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

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

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

His droll little
was up like a bow
And the beard of his
was as as the snow

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

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

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

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

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

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

He to his sleigh
to his gave a whistle
And away all flew
like the of a thistle

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