I asked my mother, "What will I be?
Will I be pretty?
Will I be rich?"
Here's what she said to me
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be"
I asked my sweetheart, "What lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows
Day after day?"
Here's what my sweetheart said
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be"
They ask their mother, "What will I be?
Will I be handsome?
Will I be rich?"
I tell them tenderly
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be"
