In this situation, you could use the code for text spanners with inner texts found here: https://github.com/davidnalesnik/lilypond-text-spanner-inner-texts In this case, you could transform your snippet like so: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \include "text-spanner-inner-texts.ily" spanners = { s2*7 | s4 \override TextSpanner.staff-padding = 2 \textSpannerInnerTexts \lyricmode { "(poco accel." -- "poco rit.)" "a tempo" } <>\startTextSpan s4 | s2 | s4. s8 | s4 <>\stopTextSpan s4 | } notes = \relative c'' { \time 2/4 \repeat unfold 8 { a4 a4 } R2*7 r4 a~ | \repeat unfold 6 a2~ | a | } \layout { \context { \Score { \compressFullBarRests } } } \score { << \new Staff << \spanners \notes >> >> } %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% It doesn't work with spanner-id, though.
