I avoid any kind of manual date/time calculation unless I 
am forced to. Here is how I would do it:

>>> midnight = datetime.datetime.combine( datetime.date.today(), 
>>> datetime.time() )
>>> seconds = datetime.timedelta( seconds=234 )
>>> time = midnight + seconds
>>> time.strftime( '%H:%M:%S' )
'00:03:54'
>>> time.strftime( 'Hours:%H minutes:%M seconds:%S' )
'Hours:00 minutes:03 seconds:54'
