This is a song my mother would hum to me when I was a child. Only the chorus though. She never could sing it in full ‘cause she don’t speak English… as I grew up, I seek the lyrics.. the song sort of grew with me. Each time I evolved in life, the words plays in my mind.. and now, I want to share it with others especially the younger generation..
The future’s not ours to see. We are responsible for all that we do. No regrets in life.
We put an effort and work things out… but the final say, still belongs to the almighty.. QUE SERA SERA
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
