Interlingual intertwining in the songs of the Porabje Slovenians in Hungary can be studied in publications published in the last thirty years. In this article I will analyse the songs in two larger collections: the two hundred folk songs collected in the books Fučkaj, fučkaj, fantiček moj (Mukič and Mukič 2001 and 2003) and the church songs from the Porabje songbook Poslušajte vsi ljudje (Kozar 2011). The songs exhibit some typical influences from Hungarian, German and Croatian, as well as from Standard Slovenian.
