Does this help?
You'll need also to adjust to match your preference for that syllable
\once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT
StanzaSix = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = "2."
\set language = "es"
\override StanzaNumber #'font-shape = #'italic
\override LyricText #'font-shape = #'italic
\markup \concat {* \hspace #0.5 Vo} -- so -- tros hi -- jos de~Is -- ra --
el,
}
