Whatever Will Be, Will Be (Que Sera, Sera)

When I was just a little girl

I asked my mother, "What will I be?

Will I be pretty, will I be rich?"

Here's what she said to me

"Que será, será

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours to see

Que será, será

What will be, will be"

Since I am just a boy in school

I asked my teacher, "What should I try?

Should I paint pictures, should I sing songs?"

This was her wise reply

"Que será, será

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours to see

Que será, será

What will be, will be"

When I grew up and fell in love

I ask my lover, "What lies ahead?

"Will we have rainbows, day after day?"

Guess what my lover said

"Que será, será

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours to see

Que será, será

What will be, will be"

Now, I have children of my own

They ask their mother, "What will I be?"

"Will I be pretty?", "Will I be rich?"

I tell them, "Wait and see"

"Que será, será

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours to see

Que será, será

What will be, will be"

What will be, will be

What will be, will be
