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,

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!"
