[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 3]
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
Que será, será
What will be, will be
