The Night Before Christmas

[00:00:00] The Night Before Christmas - Bright Eyes

[00:00:01] 'Twas the night before Christmas

[00:00:02] When all through the house

[00:00:04] Not a creature was stirring not even a mouse

[00:00:08] The stockings were hung by the chimney with care

[00:00:11] In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there

[00:00:16] The children were nestled all snug in their beds

[00:00:20] While visions of sugar plums danced in their heads

[00:00:24] And Mama in her 'kerchief and I in my cap

[00:00:28] Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap

[00:00:32] When out on the roof there arose such a clatter

[00:00:36] I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter

[00:00:40] Away to the window I flew like a flash

[00:00:44] Tore open the shutter and threw up the sash

[00:00:48] The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow

[00:00:52] Gave the lustre of midday to objects below

[00:00:56] When what to my wondering eyes should appear

[00:01:00] But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer

[00:01:05] With a little old driver so lively and quick

[00:01:08] I knew in a moment it must be St Nick

[00:01:12] More rapid than eagles his coursers they came

[00:01:16] And he whistled and shouted

[00:01:18] And called them by name:

[00:01:21] "Now Dasher Now Dancer

[00:01:25] Now Prancer and Vixen

[00:01:28] On Comet On Cupid

[00:01:31] On Donner and Blitzen

[00:01:33] To the top of the porch

[00:01:35] To the top of the wall

[00:01:37] Now dash away Dash away

[00:01:40] Dash away all "

[00:01:43] As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly

[00:01:46] When they meet with an obstacle mount to the sky

[00:01:50] So up to the house-top the coursers they flew

[00:01:55] With the sleigh full of toys and St Nicholas too

[00:02:00] And then in a twinkling I heard on the roof

[00:02:04] The prancing and pawing of each little hoof

[00:02:07] As I drew in my head and was turning around

[00:02:12] Down the chimney St Nicholas came with a bound

[00:02:16] He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot

[00:02:21] And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot

[00:02:25] A bundle of toys he had flung on his back

[00:02:29] And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack

[00:02:33] His eyes--how they twinkled His dimples how merry

[00:02:40] His cheeks were like roses his nose like a cherry

[00:02:45] His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow

[00:02:49] And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow

[00:02:54] The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth

[00:02:58] And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath

[00:03:02] He had a broad face and a little round belly

[00:03:07] That shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly

[00:03:11] He was chubby and plump a right jolly old elf

[00:03:16] And I laughed when I saw him in spite of myself

[00:03:21] A wink of his eye and a twist of his head

[00:03:24] Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread

[00:03:28] He spoke not a word but went straight to his work

[00:03:33] And filled all the stockings then turned with a jerk

[00:03:38] And laying his finger aside of his nose

[00:03:41] And giving a nod up the chimney he rose

[00:03:45] He sprang to his sleigh to his team gave a whistle

[00:03:50] And away they all flew like the down of a thistle

[00:03:55] But I heard him exclaim 'ere he drove out of sight

[00:04:00] "Happy Christmas to all and to all a good night "
