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 sera sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera sera
When I was 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 sera sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera sera
When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my lover what lies ahead
Will there be rainbows day after day
Here's what my lover said
Que sera sera
Whatever will be will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera sera
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
What will be, will be
What will be, will be
What will be, will be
