If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted and go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
'Cause they'd stick up for me
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone
I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Waiting for me to come home, to come home
If I were a boy
I think I could understand (ohh)
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted (you wanted)
'Cause he's taken you for granted (granted)
And everything you had got destroyed
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake
Think I'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
But you're just a boy
You don't understand (yeah, you don't understand, oh)
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
'Cause you've taken her for granted
And everything you have got destroyed
But you're just a boy
A Perspectiva de Gênero em If I Were a Boy de Beyoncé
A música If I Were a Boy, interpretada por Beyoncé, é uma poderosa reflexão sobre as diferenças de gênero e as expectativas sociais que recaem sobre homens e mulheres. Através de uma narrativa hipotética, a artista explora como seria sua vida se ela fosse um homem, mesmo que por apenas um dia. A letra sugere uma crítica às liberdades e comportamentos que são muitas vezes socialmente aceitos para os homens, mas julgados ou restritos para as mulheres.
A canção também aborda a empatia e a compreensão nas relações amorosas. Beyoncé canta sobre como, se fosse um homem, ela poderia entender melhor o que é amar uma mulher e, consequentemente, seria um parceiro melhor. Ela destaca a importância de ouvir e valorizar a parceira, algo que, segundo a narrativa, o homem em questão falhou em fazer. A música toca em pontos sensíveis como a dor de ser subestimada e a frustração de ter seu amor e dedicação dados como certos.
Por fim, If I Were a Boy culmina com o reconhecimento de que o sujeito da canção, um homem, não compreende a profundidade dos sentimentos da mulher nem as consequências de suas ações. Beyoncé, com sua voz poderosa e interpretação emocional, transmite a mensagem de que a compreensão e o respeito mútuo são fundamentais em qualquer relacionamento. A música se tornou um hino para muitas mulheres que se identificam com a mensagem de igualdade de gênero e respeito nas relações amorosas.
If I were a boy
Se eu pudesse ser um garoto
Even just for a day
Nem que fosse por um só dia
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
Eu sairia da cama de manhã
And throw on what I wanted and go
Vestiria qualquer coisa e sairia de casa
Drink beer with the guys
Beberia uma breja com a rapaziada
And chase after girls
E arrumaria um rabo de saia
I'd kick it with who I wanted
Eu curtiria a balada com que eu quisesse
And I'd never get confronted for it
E nunca me confrontariam por isso
'Cause they'd stick up for me
Porque ficariam do meu lado
If I were a boy
Se eu pudesse ser um garoto
I think I could understand
Acho que entenderia
How it feels to love a girl
Como é que é sentir quando se ama uma garota
I swear I'd be a better man
Juro que tentaria ser um homem melhor
I'd listen to her
Escutaria ela
'Cause I know how it hurts
Porque eu sei como machuca
When you lose the one you wanted
Quando se perde quem a gente quer
'Cause he's taken you for granted
Porque ele não deu valor a você
And everything you had got destroyed
E tudo o que você tinha foi destruído
If I were a boy
Se eu pudesse ser um garoto
I would turn off my phone
Eu desligaria meu telefone
Tell everyone it's broken
Diria a todo mundo que ele 'tá quebrado
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone
Pra acharem que estou dormindo só
I'd put myself first
Eu me colocaria em primeiro lugar
And make the rules as I go
E inventaria minhas próprias regras à medida que seguisse meu caminho
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Porque eu sei que ela seria fiel
Waiting for me to come home, to come home
Me esperando voltar pra casa, voltar pra casa
If I were a boy
Se eu pudesse ser um garoto
I think I could understand (ohh)
Acho que entenderia (ohh)
How it feels to love a girl
Como é que é sentir quando se ama uma garota
I swear I'd be a better man
Juro que tentaria ser um homem melhor
I'd listen to her
Escutaria ela
'Cause I know how it hurts
Porque eu sei como machuca
When you lose the one you wanted (you wanted)
Quando se perde quem a gente quer (a gente quer)
'Cause he's taken you for granted (granted)
Porque ele não deu valor a você (valor)
And everything you had got destroyed
E tudo o que você tinha foi destruído
It's a little too late for you to come back
É tarde demais agora pra você voltar
Say it's just a mistake
Dizendo que foi apenas um deslize
Think I'd forgive you like that
Pensando que te perdoaria assim
If you thought I would wait for you
Se pensou que esperaria por você
You thought wrong
Pensou errado
But you're just a boy
Mas você é apenas um garoto
You don't understand (yeah, you don't understand, oh)
Você não entende (sim, não entende, oh)
How it feels to love a girl someday
Como é que é sentir quando se ama uma garota
You wish you were a better man
Você queria poder ser um homem melhor
You don't listen to her
Você não escuta ela
You don't care how it hurts
Você não se importa de como machuca
Until you lose the one you wanted
Até você perder quem a gente quer
'Cause you've taken her for granted
Porque você não deu valor a ela
And everything you have got destroyed
E tudo o que você tinha foi destruído
But you're just a boy
Mas você é apenas um garoto
If I were a boy
Si yo fuera un chico
Even just for a day
Aunque solo sea por un día
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
Saldría de la cama por la mañana
And throw on what I wanted and go
Y me pondría lo que quisiera y me iría
Drink beer with the guys
Bebería cerveza con los muchachos
And chase after girls
Y me iría a por chicas
I'd kick it with who I wanted
Lo haría con quien quisiera
And I'd never get confronted for it
Y nunca me dirían nada por eso
'Cause they'd stick up for me
Porque ellos me defenderían
If I were a boy
Si yo fuera un chico
I think I could understand
Creo que podría entender
How it feels to love a girl
Cómo se siente amar a una mujer
I swear I'd be a better man
Te juro que sería un mejor hombre
I'd listen to her
La escucharía
'Cause I know how it hurts
Porque sé cuánto duele
When you lose the one you wanted
Cuando pierdes a quien quieres
'Cause he's taken you for granted
Porque te ha dado por sentado
And everything you had got destroyed
Y todo lo que tenías fue destruido
If I were a boy
Si yo fuera un chico
I would turn off my phone
Apagaría mi teléfono
Tell everyone it's broken
Les diría a todos que está roto
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone
Para que piensen que estaba durmiendo solo
I'd put myself first
Me pondría a mí mismo primero
And make the rules as I go
Y haría las reglas sobre la marcha
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Porque sé que ella sería fiel
Waiting for me to come home, to come home
Esperando a que vuelva a casa
If I were a boy
Si yo fuera un chico
I think I could understand (ohh)
Creo que podría entender (oh)
How it feels to love a girl
Cómo se siente amar a una mujer
I swear I'd be a better man

When you lose the one you wanted (you wanted)
Cuando pierdes a quien quieres (quieres)
'Cause he's taken you for granted (granted)
Porque te ha dado por sentado (sentado)
And everything you had got destroyed
Y todo lo que tenías fue destruido
It's a little too late for you to come back
Es un poco tarde para que regreses
Say it's just a mistake
Di que es solo un error
Think I'd forgive you like that
Creo que te perdonaría así
If you thought I would wait for you
Si pensaste que te esperaría
You thought wrong
Pensaste mal
But you're just a boy
Pero solamente eres un chico
You don't understand (yeah, you don't understand, oh)
No entiendes (sí, no entiendes, oh)
How it feels to love a girl someday
Cómo se siente amar a una chica algún día
You wish you were a better man
Desearías ser un mejor hombre
You don't listen to her
Tú no la escuchas
You don't care how it hurts
No te importa cuánto duele
Until you lose the one you wanted
Hasta que pierdas a quien quieres
'Cause you've taken her for granted
Porque la has dado por sentada
And everything you have got destroyed
Y todo lo que tienes es destruido
But you're just a boy
Pero solamente eres un chico
If I were a boy
Si j'étais un mec
Even just for a day
Même juste pour un jour
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
Je roulerai hors du lit le matin
And throw on what I wanted and go
Et je m'habillerai au bol et partirai
Drink beer with the guys
J'boirai des bières avec les gars
And chase after girls
Et courrais après les filles
I'd kick it with who I wanted
Je choperai qui je veux
And I'd never get confronted for it
Et personne me dira jamais rien
'Cause they'd stick up for me
Car ils seraient de mon côté
If I were a boy
Si j'étais un mec
I think I could understand
Je pense que je pourrai comprendre
How it feels to love a girl
Ce que ça ferait d'aimer une fille
I swear I'd be a better man
Je jure que je serai un homme meilleur
I'd listen to her
Je l'écouterai
'Cause I know how it hurts
Car je sais comment ça fait mal
When you lose the one you wanted
Quand tu perds celle que tu voulais
'Cause he's taken you for granted
Car il t'a prise pour acquise
And everything you had got destroyed
Et tout ce que tu avais à été détruit
If I were a boy
Si j'étais un mec
I would turn off my phone
J'éteindrai mon téléphone
Tell everyone it's broken
Je dirai à tout le monde que c'est cassé
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone
Alors ils penseraient que je dormais tout seul
I'd put myself first
Je me ferais passer en premier
And make the rules as I go
Et je créerais les règles au fur et à mesure
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Car je sais qu'elle serait fidèle
Waiting for me to come home, to come home
Elle attendrait que je rentre à la maison, rentre à la maison
If I were a boy
Si j'étais un mec
I think I could understand (ohh)
Je pense que je pourrais comprendre (ohh)

Dis que c'était juste une erreur
Think I'd forgive you like that
Pense que je te pardonnerais comme ça
If you thought I would wait for you
Si tu pensais que je t'oublierais
You thought wrong
Tu avais tord

Mais tu es juste un mec
You don't understand (yeah, you don't understand, oh)
Tu ne comprends pas (ouais, tu ne comprends pas, oh)
How it feels to love a girl someday
Ce que ça fait d'aimer une fille un jour
You wish you were a better man

Tu t'en fiches de comment ça fait mal
Until you lose the one you wanted
Jusqu'à que tu perdes celle que tu voulais
'Cause you've taken her for granted
Car tu l'as prise pour acquise
And everything you have got destroyed
Et tout ce que tu as est détruit
But you're just a boy

If I were a boy
Wenn ich ein Junge wäre
Even just for a day
Auch nur für einen Tag
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
Ich würde morgens aus dem Bett rollen
And throw on what I wanted and go
Und ziehe an, was ich will, und gehe
Drink beer with the guys
Würde Bier mit den Jungs trinken
And chase after girls
Und Mädchen hinterher jagen
I'd kick it with who I wanted
Ich würde es treiben, mit wem ich wollte
And I'd never get confronted for it
Und ich würde nie damit konfrontiert werden
'Cause they'd stick up for me
Denn sie würden für mich Partei ergreifen
If I were a boy
Wenn ich ein Junge wäre
I think I could understand
Glaube ich, ich könnte verstehen
How it feels to love a girl
Wie es sich anfühlt, ein Mädchen zu lieben
I swear I'd be a better man
Ich schwöre, ich wäre ein besserer Mann
I'd listen to her
Ich würde ihr zuhören
'Cause I know how it hurts
Denn ich weiß, wie weh es tut
When you lose the one you wanted
Wenn du den verlierst, den du wolltest
'Cause he's taken you for granted
Weil er dich für selbstverständlich gehalten hat
And everything you had got destroyed
Und alles, was du hattest, wurde zerstört
If I were a boy
Wenn ich ein Junge wäre
I would turn off my phone
Würde ich mein Telefon ausschalten
Tell everyone it's broken
Sag allen, dass es kaputt ist
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone
Damit sie denken, dass ich allein schlafe
I'd put myself first
Ich würde mich selbst an erster Stelle setzen
And make the rules as I go
Und mach' die Regeln, während ich gehe
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Denn ich weiß, dass sie treu sein würde
Waiting for me to come home, to come home
Darauf wartet, dass ich nach Hause komme, nach Hause komme

Es ist ein bisschen zu spät für dich, um zurückzukommen
Say it's just a mistake
Sagst, dass es nur ein Irrtum ist
Think I'd forgive you like that
Denkst, ich verzeihe dir einfach so
If you thought I would wait for you
Wenn du dachtest, ich würde auf dich warten
You thought wrong
Dann hast du falsch gedacht

Even just for a day
Anche solo per un giorno
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
Io rotolerei fuori dal letto alla mattina
And throw on what I wanted and go
E mi metterei addosso ciò che voglio e poi andare
Drink beer with the guys
Bere birra con i ragazza

E andrei con chi voglio

I swear I'd be a better man
Io giuro che sarei un uomo migliore
I'd listen to her
La ascolterei
'Cause I know how it hurts
Perché so quanto faccia male
When you lose the one you wanted
Quando tu perdi quello che volevi
'Cause he's taken you for granted
Perché lui ti ha preso per scontato
And everything you had got destroyed
E tutto quello che avevi viene distrutto
If I were a boy
Se fossi un uomo
I would turn off my phone
Spegnerei il mio telefono
Tell everyone it's broken
Dico a tutti che è rotti
So they'd think that I was sleeping alone
Così loro pensano che io stessi dormendo da solo
I'd put myself first
Metterei me al primo posto

Dire che è solo un errore
Think I'd forgive you like that
Pensi che io ti perdonassi così
If you thought I would wait for you
