Sur la place du marché
Un baptême est annoncé.
Qui est la marraine ?
C'est une hirondelle.
Qui est le parrain ?
C'est un gros lapin.
Qui est la nourrice ?
C'est une écrevisse.
Et qui est l'enfant ?
C'est un éléphant.
In the market place
A christening has been announced.
Who is the godmother?
It's a swallow.
Who is the godfather?
It's a big rabbit.
Who is the wet nurse?
It's a crawfish.
And who is the child?
It's an elephant.
