[Verse 1]

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


[Chorus]

"Que será, será

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours to see

Que será, será

What will be, will be"


[Verse 2]

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:


[Chorus]

"Que será, será

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours to see

Que será, será

What will be, will be"


[Bridge]

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


[Chorus]

"Que será, será

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours to see

Que será, será

What will be, will be"


[Outro]

Que será, será
