One thing is sure, Montreal-based Nicola Ciccone is talented in song writing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of his latest songs is on the talent for happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bambi did not find neither the original French lyrics nor its English translation online. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, she took the time to translate those beautiful lyrics before going to sleep late last night. She is eager to share them with you, along with the song, dear readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By doing so, she felt instant increased happiness because she recalled her youth when she used to listen to French songs on the radio and rush to transcribe their lyrics for fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original French transcript is preceded by the result of a quick collaboration with her faithful friend, Mr. Google Translate<\/em>. Bravo for his great job :). Of course, she took the time to revise, editing words here and there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Ciccone’s wise insights, along with his personal relationship with happiness, are inspiring. The conclusion of his song, where he decides to work on his happiness, is uplifting. His smile when he sings the chorus ,”you need to be talented at being happy, you need talent for happiness<\/em>“, reflects the sweetness of his authenticity. Needless to say that this artist spread instant moments of well-being to Bambi’s ears, heart, and sleepy mind after working late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you, Mr. Nicola Ciccone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
