The paper explains the poetics of Croatian Marian oral lyrics. Marian oral lyrics are religious lyrics with an emphasis on the Blessed Virgin Mary. The introduction explains the basic starting points, history and spread of Marian devotion among Croats. The first chapter is based on the Feast of the Annunciation, one of the most important feasts in the Catholic Church. It celebrates the actual incarnation of our Savior – the Word who became flesh in his mother's womb. The Lamentations of Our Lady is the next topic discussed in this work. These poems are indispensable in the discussion of Marian poetry, because this poem has left a deep mark on our nation to this day. By mentioning the lamentations, we enter the liturgical season of Lent, so the topic of the next few chapters touches on the Easter Triduum and the lyrical richness that accompanies it. Finally, it remains to explain the Easter and pilgrimage lyrics with a few examples. The last chapter talks about daily recommendations and prayers to the Blessed Virgin Mary such as the rosary and other devotions.
