Текст и перевод песни Bing Crosby - The Night Before Christmas




The Night Before Christmas
Ночь перед Рождеством
'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
[твой_перевод]
In hopes that St. Nicholas would soon be there
[твой_перевод]
The children were nestled all snug in their beds
[твой_перевод]
While visions of sugar plums danced in their heads
[твой_перевод]
And Mama in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap
[твой_перевод]
Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap
[твой_перевод]
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter
[твой_перевод]
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter
[твой_перевод]
Away to the window I flew like a flash
[твой_перевод]
Tore open the shutter and threw up the sash
[твой_перевод]
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
[твой_перевод]
Gave the luster of midday to objects below
[твой_перевод]
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear
[твой_перевод]
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer
[твой_перевод]
With a little old driver, so lively and quick
[твой_перевод]
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick
[твой_перевод]
More rapid than eagles, his coursers they came
[твой_перевод]
And he whistled and shouted and called them by name
[твой_перевод]
"Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer!
[твой_перевод]
Now, Prancer and Vixen!
[твой_перевод]
On, Comet! On, Cupid!
[твой_перевод]
On, Donner and Blitzen!
[твой_перевод]
To the top of the porch!
[твой_перевод]
To the top of the wall!
[твой_перевод]
Now dash away! Dash away!
[твой_перевод]
Dash away all!"
[твой_перевод]
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly
[твой_перевод]
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky
[твой_перевод]
So up to the house top the coursers they flew
[твой_перевод]
With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too
[твой_перевод]
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
[твой_перевод]
The prancing and pawing of each tiny little hoof
[твой_перевод]
As I drew in my head and was turning around
[твой_перевод]
Down the chimney, St. Nicholas came with a bound
[твой_перевод]
He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot
[твой_перевод]
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot
[твой_перевод]
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back
[твой_перевод]
And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack
[твой_перевод]
His eyes, how they twinkled! His dimples, how merry!
[твой_перевод]
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
[твой_перевод]
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow
[твой_перевод]
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow
[твой_перевод]
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth
[твой_перевод]
And the smoke, it encircled his head like a wreath
[твой_перевод]
He had a broad face and a little round belly
[твой_перевод]
That shook when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly
[твой_перевод]
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf
[твой_перевод]
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself
[твой_перевод]
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
[твой_перевод]
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread
[твой_перевод]
He spoke not a word but went straight to his work
[твой_перевод]
And filled all the stockings, and then he turned with a jerk
[твой_перевод]
And laying his finger aside of his nose
[твой_перевод]
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose
[твой_перевод]
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle
[твой_перевод]
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle
[твой_перевод]
But I heard him exclaim, 'ere he drove out of sight
[твой_перевод]
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night!"
[твой_перевод]
