Luyện nghe bài hát The Gift

A poor girl named Maria
Was to market one day
She stopped for a rest by the
Where a with a broken wing lay
A few passed till she saw it
For it's feathers covered with sand
But soon and wrapped it was travelling
In the of Maria's small hand

She gave her last peso
On a made of rushes and twine
She fed it loose corn the market
And watched it stronger with time

Now the Christmas Eve was coming
And the church with tinsel and light
And all of the townfolks presents
To lay by the that night
There diamonds and incense
And
In packages fit for a
But for one ragged bird in a cage
Maria had to bring

She waited just before midnight
So no one see her go in
And crying she knelt by the
For her was unworthy of Him

Then a spoke to her through the darkness
Maria, brings you to me
If the bird in the is your offering
Open the and let me see
she trembled, she did as He asked her
And out of the cage the flew
Soaring up into the
On a wing that had good as new

Just the midnight bells rang out
And the little started to sing
A song that no words could
beauty was fit for a king

Now Maria blessed just to listen
To that cascade of notes sweet and
As her was lifted to heaven
By the very first nightingale's
