Hello all

I'm trying to replicate this original that has non-standard text in the final volta of the repeats.

The original music

Having used the instructions about manual repeats in section 1.4.1 of the documentation, I've come up with this:

\version "2.24.1"
\language "deutsch"

global = { \key b \major \time 4/4 }

voltatekst = \markup { Efter sidste vers. }

\relative { \global
  b'4 a g f
  \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1-4"))
  f f2 r4
  \set Score.repeatCommands = #(list(list 'volta voltatekst) 'end-repeat)
  f2 r2 \bar "|."
  \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f) end)
}

That produces this rather festive result:

My attempt

I assume this is because the text is being interpreted as dynamic expressions and whatnot.

Is there any way to force lilypond to assume that it's simply text and not any sort of musical expression?


Best wishes,

Jakob Pedersen
