Goose, Goose.... Duck!

3 Goose Are We,
Merry 3 In A Pen,
Enter At Your Own Peril,
Lose A Feather Or Two,
I Dare You!

We May Look Ready,
Tis Being The Season,
Perhaps First You Should Ask....

Are We That Ready?
To Become Goose Fat,
No Kitchen Table For Us,
We Will Protect!

There is still dust in the air; but gradually it settles and everything calms down, the crowd of mad ducks has already dispersed and is putting themself in order after the brawl. The leader of the pack looked at the curious passerby cameraman with an appraising glance. He didn't seem to like my long black telephoto lens, and he didn't like me either.
--What the f--ck are you staring at? F--ck off! Get out, you piece of shit, you are warned.
--What is the problem, Mister Goose? This is a public space, isnt it? I am not violating your private property. Plus, let it be known to you, there is a law on Trespassing the private territory! And I am totally in the full right to take photographs here.
--Oh, mates, look -- we have another lawyer here! Yeah, come on, try it, if you're so brave. We had another braver not long before you, he came to us here, also was mumbling something about his inalienable rights too. Said he was a scientist and just studying feathered friends habits. I ate his liver with beans and a glass of excellent Chianti!

Russian version

В воздухе все еще стоит пыль, но постепенно все успокаивается, толпа бешеных уток уже разошлась по двору и приводит себя в порядок после дебоша. Вожак стаи смерил любопытствующего прохожего фотографа оценивающим взглядом. Похоже, ему не понравился большой черный объектив, да и сам я тоже ему не понравился.
--Ну, чего уставился? Вали давай! Проваливай, кому сказал.
--А что такое? Это публичное пространство, я не нарушаю границы частной собственности. К тому же, да будет вам известно, существует закон о Проходе через частную территорию! Я имею полное право вас фотографировать.
--Ага, ну давай, попробуй, если ты такой смелый. Заходил к нам тут один до тебя, такой из себя весь смелый, тоже говорил что знает про свои неотъемлемые права. Говорил что он ученый и просто изучает птичьи повадки. Я съел его печень с бобами и бокалом отличного Кьянти!

_Si dices amarme, ¿Porque te vas de mi lado?, le pregunto Doris a Paco.
-Te he repetido muchas veces que no me gusta vivir en cautiverio, respondió Paco.
_Pero si aquí vivimos bien, no nos hace falta nada; salir de aquí implica enfrentarnos a peligros desconocidos.
-Me iré y alguna vez regresaré, solo déjame llevarme una de tus plumas como recuerdo de nuestro gran amor!
_¿Será verdad que algún día nos volveremos a ver?; se preguntaba Doris, quedando con el corazón roto, mientras veía alejarse al amor de su vida!

_If you say you love me, why are you leaving my side," Doris asked Paco.
-I've told you many times that I don't like living in captivity," answered Paco.
_But if we live well here, we don't need anything; leaving here means facing unknown dangers.
-I will leave and sometime I will return, just let me take one of your feathers as a souvenir of our great love!
_Will we ever see each other again, Doris wondered, her heart breaking, as she watched the love of her life go away!
