'Twas the night before Christmas,

when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring,

not even a mouse.

Sinhala translation (one of 19 available languages):

පෙර රාත්]රියයි, ඒ නත්තලට

ඇදී යන විට හරහා, මුළුගේ

නෑ ඇහුනෙ සද්දයක්

අඩුම තරමින් වත්, මීයෙකුගේ.

There's a lot more stirring in this house than a mouse...
