If you temporarily have additional lyrics to a voice you can keep the lyrics context alive with the following construct. Unless you do this, a further temporary lyrics context would create a separate line (if it happens on the same system of music). The solution is to create one or more named lyrics context(s) with <code>\new Lyrics = "lyr1"</code><br /> <code>\new Lyrics = "lyr2"</code><br /> β¦ '''before''' they are filled with the lyrics text. It is noteable that the definition of the contexts '''must''' use \new β¦ while later references ''must'' use \context β¦ <lilypond version="2.24.0"> %% http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=781 \score { \new Staff << \new Voice = "melody" { \relative c'' { a1 \repeat volta 2 {a} b \repeat volta 2 {b} } } \context Lyrics ="line1" \with{ associatedVoice = "melody" } \lyricmode { one << % this is the 1st temporary lyric part \context Lyrics = "line1" { one } \context Lyrics = "line2" { two } % the context "line2" dies here >> one << % this is the 2nd temporary lyric part \context Lyrics = "line1" { one } \context Lyrics = "line2" { two } >> } >> } </lilypond> [[Category:Vocal music]] [[Category:Vocal music]] [[Category:Workaround]]
