Prokofiev: Peter And The Wolf, Op. 67 (Narration Rev. Sting): Just Then A Duck Came Waddling Round (English Version)

Just then a duck came waddling round. She was glad that Peter
Had not closed the gate and decided to take a nice swim in
The deep pond in the meadow. And she jumped into the water
Seeing the duck, the little bird flew down upon the
Grass, settled next to her and shrugged his shoulders
"What kind of bird are you if you can't fly?" said the
Bird. To this the duck replied, "And what kind of bird
Are you if you can't swim?" and dived into the pond
They argued and argued, the duck swimming in the
Pond, the little bird hopping along the shore

Suddenly, something caught Peter's attention
He noticed a cat crawling through the grass
