I asked my mother, "What will I be?"
"Will I be pretty, will I be rich?"
Here's what she said to me
"Que sera sera, whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see, que sera sera
What will be, will be"
When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart, "What lies ahead?"
"Will we have rainbows day after day?"
Here's what my sweetheart said
"Que sera sera, whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see, que sera sera
What will be, will be"
Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, "What will I be?"
"Will I be handsome, will I be rich?"
I tell them tenderly
"Que sera sera, whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see, que sera sera
What will be, will be"
Que sera sera, what will be, will be
