The represented song is “Jeanne’s Duck” by Georges Brassens of which English Lyrics are:
Jeanne's
duck
died when new year was celebrated...
She had laid, the night before,
miraculously!
an egg.

Jeanne's
duck
died through having,
at least we presume,
a bad
cold!

Jeanne's
duck
died on her egg,
and in her lovely costume
of quite new
feathers!

As Jeanne's
duck
left no widower,
it was the rest of us who got
the feathers,
and the egg.

All us men, and women,
no doubt,
will retain for a long time the
memory of Jeanne's
duck
by gum!
