I believe "arrangement" (or "covers") is what we see most of the time outside classical, but it may be useful.
I can imagine using this to indicate that e.g. Iron Maiden's "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" is based on the poem by Coleridge[1]. Or that Sufjan Stevens' "All Delighted People" is based on Simon & Garfunkel's "Sound of Silence"[2].
With that in mind, I'd change "composer" to "artist" in the description, to apply more generally to composers or lyricists.
