Sanjay Sircar Florian's Song' 3 translations, awaiting Occitan (29) Lyr Req: 'O, happy life, oh maiden free' 16 Jan 13


In the telemovie "The Double Clue" with David Suchet as Hercule Poirot, the second song, sung in Italian, is set to a melody I remember from my childhood, with the refrain ending

Oh happy life, oh maiden free
Kings on their thrones might envy thee.

But this is probably not the title of the song in translation. I am looking for
(a) the Italian title of the song
(b) sheetmusic for any English words and music for the song, preferably the one I remember.

I apologise for not being more specific.

Sanjay Sircar
