By analysing and interpreting seven selected songs nominated or awarded in the Category Hit of the Year of the Porin Music Award in the twenty-first century, the paper describes and problematizes the way biblical motifs are incorporated and placed in the motif system of contemporary popular texts. Five songs of love themes were analysed (Žeđam, Dat će nam Bog, Činim pravu stvar, Godinama, Tvoje ime čuvam) and two songs of reflective theme (Ezoterija, Teške boje). Love-themed poems are divided into two subgroups according to the dominant motif system of the text. The first subgroup consists of lyrics describing the unflooded desire of the lyrical subject for the object of love, and the second poems describing the impossibility of restraining a previously realized love relationship. Biblical motifs are incorporated into popular texts in the form of biblisms (symbols taken from the Bible) or Christianisms (symbols taken from general Christian culture), as carriers of the style and meaning of versed achievements. The original meaning of the embedded biblical motifs in the analysed verses of the love theme is affirmed by a artistically resemanticised meaning-stylistic sequel or negated by a partial or radical semantic-stylistic change. The relationship of the text of the poem to biblical motifs outlines the image of the lyrical subject's relationship with the object of love and the representation of the inner world of the lyrical subject. Analysed texts of reflective theme, denying or affirming the original semantics of incorporated biblical motifs, plot a dominating contemporary picture of human existence as a choice of the path of realization of subjectivity by individual choice of acceptance or rejection of traditional spiritual-religious values.
