[00:05.13] | ’Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house |
[00:09.82] | Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. |
[00:13.62] | The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, |
[00:16.99] | In hopes that Saint Nicholas soon would be there. |
[00:20.73] | The children were nestled all snug in their beds, |
[00:23.97] | While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads; |
[00:27.80] | And mamma in her ’kerchief, and I in my cap, |
[00:30.79] | Had just settled down for a long winter’s nap; |
[00:35.57] | When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, |
[00:38.98] | I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. |
[00:41.92] | Away to the window I flew like a flash, |
[00:44.92] | Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. |
[00:48.49] | The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow |
[00:51.54] | Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below, |
[00:55.55] | When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, |
[00:58.67] | But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer, |
[01:04.76] | With a little old driver, so lively and quick, |
[01:08.42] | I knew in a moment it must be Saint Nick. |
[01:11.43] | More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, |
[01:14.74] | And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name: |
[01:18.40] | “Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen! |
[01:22.57] | On, Comet! on Cupid! on, Donder and Blitzen! |
[01:27.44] | To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall! |
[01:30.27] | Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!” |
[01:35.01] | As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, |
[01:38.12] | When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky, |
[01:41.05] | So up to the house-top the coursers they flew, |
[01:43.84] | With the sleigh full of toys, and Saint Nicholas too. |
[01:47.74] | And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof |
[01:51.37] | The prancing and pawing of each little hoof. |
[01:55.35] | As I drew in my head, and was turning around, |
[01:58.86] | Down the chimney Saint Nicholas came with a bound. |
[02:02.48] | He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot, |
[02:06.24] | And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot. |
[02:10.21] | A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, |
[02:12.95] | And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack. |
[02:16.67] | His eyes — how they twinkled! his dimples how merry! |
[02:20.36] | His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! |
[02:26.21] | His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, |
[02:29.92] | And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow. |
[02:34.45] | The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth, |
[02:37.25] | And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath. |
[02:41.67] | He had a broad face and a little round belly, |
[02:45.30] | That shook, when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly. |
[02:49.01] | He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, |
[02:52.16] | And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself. |
[02:55.78] | A wink of his eye and a twist of his head, |
[02:58.67] | Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread. |
[03:02.54] | He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, |
[03:06.46] | And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk, |
[03:10.43] | And laying his finger aside of his nose, |
[03:13.38] | And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose. |
[03:16.63] | He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, |
[03:20.49] | And away they all flew like the down of a thistle. |
[03:23.96] | But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight, |
[03:30.01] | “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!” |
