\relative c'' { a4 e c8 e r4 b2 c4( d) }
The lyrics can be set to these notes, combining both with the
\addlyrics
keyword. Lyrics are entered by separating each
syllable with a space.
<< \relative c'' { a4 e c8 e r4 b2 c4( d) } \addlyrics { One day this shall be free } >>
This melody ends on a melisma, a single syllable (‘free’)
sung to more than one note. This is indicated with an extender
line. It is entered as two underscores __
:
<< \relative c'' { a4 e c8 e r4 b2 c4( d) } \addlyrics { One day this shall be free __ } >>
Similarly, hyphens between words can be entered as two dashes, resulting in a centered hyphen between two syllables
<< \relative c' { \time 2/4 f4 f c c } \addlyrics { A -- le -- gri -- a } >>
More options, such as putting multiple stanzas below a melody, are discussed in Vocal music.
