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 Sera Sera

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours to see

Que Sera Sera

Since I am 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

(Chorus)

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)

Now I have children of my own

They ask their mother, "What will I be?

Will I be pretty, will I be rich?"

I tell them, "Wait and see"
