In this article, the author’s experience in teaching Bulgarian to Ukrainian refugees is shared. Some ways of incorporating the lyrics of popular songs into the learning process in order to achieve certain results are presented, for example: developing listening comprehension skills, deepening knowledge of some lexical and grammatical categories, learning idioms and cliché phrases, acquiring socio-cultural competence, etc.
