Shakira- Sera Sera

Question

First post! Part of the song Sera Sera is, "lo que sera sera, lo que aun no fue es porque fue para que se haga". Any idea what this means? It sounds like, "that which will be will be, even that which wasn't, is, because it was meant to be". Is that right?

Gracias!

"Whatever will Be, will be." is "Lo que será, será." FYI. - jphip, Jan 4, 2015

Answer 1

This song have two similar phrases:

"Será, será que lo que aún no fue es porque fue para hacerse hoy."

"Lo que será será, y lo que aún no fue es porque fue para que se haga"

Make refer some things like: Chance your life or have a date.

But these phrases lack of fluency.

Answer 2

I´ll try translate the meaning: "Whatever will be, will be, what has not been done, was made to be done today." Really i don´t know if that translate has any sense on English.

Nice effort. - annierats, Jan 4, 2015

Answer 3

lo que sera sera, lo que aun no fue es porque fue para que se haga

What will be will be, and what has yet to be, is there in order that it may still happen.

Ok, my take, and I'm only a student. A case of Spanish showing off a bit with it's sometimes untranslatable tenses.
