When I was just a little boy song lyrics :


When I was just a little boy,

I asked my mother,

“What will I be ?

Will I be handsome?

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!”


When I was just a child in school,

I asked my teacher,

“What should I try?

Should I paint pictures?

Should I sing songs?”

This was her wise reply:

“Que Sera, Sera!

Whatever will be, will be

The future’s not ours to see

Que Sera, Sera!”


When I grew up and fell in love

I asked my lover what lies ahead?

Will we have rainbows day after day

Just what my lover said:

“Que Sera, Sera!

Whatever will be, will be

The future’s not ours to see

Que Sera, Sera!”


Now I have children of my own

They asked their father

“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!”


শৈশৱতে অজানিতে

আইক সুধিলোঁ

মই ডাঙৰ হ’লে

ধুনীয়া হ’ম নে?

ধনী হ’ম নে?

মিচিকীয়াই ক’লে-

“Que Sera, Sera!

Whatever will be, will be

The future’s not ours to see

Que Sera, Sera!”


কৈশোৰতে এদিন মই

গুৰুক সুধিলোঁ কিনো কৰিম?

ছবি আঁকিম নে?

গান এটি গামনে?

একেটি উত্তৰ দিলে-

“Que Sera, Sera!

Whatever will be, will be

The future’s not ours to see

Que Sera, Sera!”


এদিন মনৰ মানুহজনীক

সুধিলোঁ ভৱিষ্যতে,

পামনে বাৰু ৰামধেনু সদায়?

হাঁহি হাঁহি তেওঁ ক’লে-

“Que Sera, Sera!

Whatever will be, will be

The future’s not ours to see

Que Sera, Sera!”


এতিয়া নিজৰ সন্তানেও সুধে

এটি কথাকে

ধুনীয়া হ’ম নে?

ধনী হ’ম নে?

কওঁ কোমলতাৰে-

“Que Sera, Sera!

Whatever will be, will be

The future’s not ours to see

Que Sera, Sera!”
