Berović said in 2016 about her childhood during the Bosnian War: "I had the bad fortune to belong to the generation that grew up during the war in Bosnia. I carry many ugly, and beautiful memories from that period of my life. The ugly memories include my family's relocation in search of a peaceful life, even though, at the time, I was not fully aware of the horrors of the situation. I spent most of my days playing, like any child."

Maya Berović Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Kada zovem te, lažeš me spontano
Ja glumim da verujem ti sve to
Samo da bi' te imala ponovo
Samo mi se pojavi, da celu noć me maziš samo
Onda kada osvane, odeš od mene tamo-'vamo
Svaku bi probao, pa bi kleo se da moj samo si
Ja sam ti, ja sam ti oprostila sve što mi
Nikada ne bi mogô ti, zarad te kapi ljubavi
Samo je batali, 'ajde, gde smo stali?
Počnimo ispočetka na fer, daj, nisi mali
Mene bi svi krali, a ja slepa za njim
Znaj, gnev u meni kuva, dok čekam da se javiš
Samo mi se pojavi, da celu noć me maziš samo
Onda kada osvane, odeš od mene tamo-'vamo
Ja sam ti, ja sam ti verna kô pas, a ti
Svaku bi probao, pa bi kleo se da moj samo si
Ja sam ti, ja sam ti oprostila sve što mi
Nikada ne bi mogô ti, zarad te kapi ljubavi
Verna kô pas, a ti—
Verna kô pas, a ti—
Ja sam ti, ja sam ti oprostila sve što mi
Nikada ne bi mogô ti, zarad te kapi ljubavi
The lyrics of Maya Berovic's song "Verna ko pas" tell the story of a woman who is deeply in love with a man who constantly lies to her and cheats on her. Despite being aware of his infidelities, she still loves him and forgives him for everything he does. The chorus of the song, "Ja sam ti verna ko pas, a ti svaku bi probao" ("I'm loyal to you like a dog, but you would try anyone"), is a powerful metaphor to depict the level of devotion the woman has towards her lover. She's willing to forgive all of his flaws and shortcomings as long as he comes back to her and makes her feel loved again.
The lyrics also capture the emotional rollercoaster that the woman goes through every time she interacts with her lover. He gives her a glimmer of hope and happiness, only to disappear again without a trace. The woman is left feeling uncertain and anxious, waiting for his next move, fueling her anger and resentment towards him.
Overall, the song "Verna ko pas" speaks to the universal experiences of heartbreak, love, and loyalty in relationships. It's a powerful testament to the complexity of human emotions and the lengths people will go to for the people they love.
