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



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 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 handsome?

Will I be rich?"

I tell them tenderly



Que será será

Whatever will be will be

The future's not ours to see

Que será será

What will be wïll be

Que será será
