Background and recording

"The emotion in this song is easy [for me] to express since I personally have gone through it. But I try to sing and translate [the song] with my own way. There are no scenes [in it] that show I am actually crying, in contrast it shows my fortitude in facing the difficulty."

—Siti Nurhaliza on recording "Jaga Dia Untukku" [4] [a]

The song was recorded in January 2014, [5] in which it was inspired by her feelings when she learned her husband was involved in a motorcycle accident in December 2012.

The lyric of the song is all inspired by her experiences in dealing with the news of the incident and her worries when taking care of him. According to Zaidi Mohamad of Berita Harian, its lyric, "portrays the sadness and the pain that appears to be close to Siti in reminiscing how she dealt with the trying moments when her husband was involved in a road accident around late December of 2012 in New Zealand".
