I think perhaps it's easier than you think:
lyrL = { \once \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #LEFT }
noten = \relative c'' {
\set melismaBusyProperties = #'() d1 |
c1 ~ |
c1
\bar "|."
}
text = \lyricmode {
a -- \lyrL \markup \line { men \draw-line #'(4 . 0) } "(n)"
}
\score {
\new ChoirStaff <<
\new Staff \new Voice = "melodieA" \noten
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melodieA" \text
>>
}
No need for all those extra Voices, DevNull contexts, etc.
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
