AS TRADICIONAIS
CANÇÕES NATALINAS
The Night Before Christmas Song
Em português, Canção
da Véspera de Natal
 The
Night Before Christmas Song
Twas the night
before Christmas and all through the house
Not a creature
was stirring, not even a mouse.
All the stockings
were hung by the chimney with care
In the hope
that Saint Nicholas soon would be there.
Then, what
to my wondering eyes should appear,
A miniature
sleigh and eight tiny reindeer,
A little old
driver so lively and quick,
I knew in
a moment it must be Saint Nick.
And more rapid
than eagles his reindeer all came
As he shouted,
"Oh Dasher" and each reindeer's name.
And so up
to the housetop the reindeer soon flew
With the sleigh
full of toys and Saint Nicholas, too.
Down the chimney
he came with a leap and a bound;
He was dressed
all in fur, and his belly was round.
He spoke not
a word but went straight to this work,
And filled
all the stockings, then turned with a jerk,
And laying
his finger aside of his nose,
Then giving
a nod up the chimney he rose.
But I heard
him exclaim as he drove out of sight,
"Merry Christmas
to all, and to all a good night!"
