In 1955, \textit{T. V. Narayana} [C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris 240, 1188-1189 (1955; Zbl 0064.12705)] introduced the distribution \(N_{n,k}= {n\choose k-1}{n\choose k}/n\) for \(1\leq k\leq n\). Define the \(n\)th Narayana polynomial as \(N_n(z)= \sum_{1\leq k\leq n}N_{n,k} z^k\) for \(n\geq 1\). In this paper the author gives a combinatorial proof of a recurrence for Narayana polynomials.
