Oh Qué Será? Lyrics in English Willie Colón
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Oh Qué Será? by Willie Colón from Spanish to English.
Yo creo en muchas cosas que no he visto, y ustedes también, lo sé
I believe in many things that I haven't seen, and you all too, I know
No se puede negar la existencia de algo palpado por mas etereo que
You can't deny the existence of something touched by more ethereal than
Sea no hace falta exhibir una prueba de decencia de aquello que es tan verdadero
It is not necessary to exhibit a proof of decency of that which is so true
El único gesto es creer o no
The only gesture is to believe or not
Algunas veces hasta creer llorando
Sometimes even believing while crying
Se trata de un tema incompleto porque le falta respuesta

Respuesta que alguno de ustedes, quizás, le pueda dar
An answer that some of you, perhaps, can give
Es un tema en technicolor para hacer algo util del amor

Para todos nosotros, amén

qué sera, qué sera
What will be, what will be
Que anda suspirando por las alcobas

Que se oye susurrando en versos de trova

Que anda combinandonos preguntas locas

Que anda en las cabezas, anda en las bocas

Que anda ascendiendo por hartos huecos

Esta en la fantasia de los infelices

Y el mismo padre eterno que nunca fue alla

Al hombre nuevamente lo bendeciran

Porque no tiene caso volver a rodar
