Why do the courtiers call the prince ‘the Happy Prince’? Is he really happy? What does he see all around him?

The courtiers called the prince ‘the Happy Prince’ because he was always happy. When he was alive, he was unaware of what tears were. He lived in a palace where grief was not allowed to enter. However, when he died and was made into a statue, he was not happy and tears flowed down his eyes on seeing poor state of his city and the people around.
