Hello,

I'm quite new to lilypond and brand new to this mailing list, so let me
introduce myself first. My name is Thomas, I'm 27 years old and I live
in Germany (so please be tolerant with my English :-) ). I know C/C++ and 
LaTeX quite well and I have typeset some songs with lilypond. 
However, I still get a warning for every song when translating it:

1451605062.ly:13:17: warning: Must stop before this music ends:
texta = \lyrics {
                 Die Zeit zu beg -- ginn -- nen ist jetzt. \skip4;

The fact that I get this warning for every song lets me assume that I
make something substantially wrong. I therefore ask here whether someone 
could help me with the following excerpt. (I suspect that if I have one 
working example of a typical song line, I can correct the other songs, too.)

\begin{mudela}
\header {title = "Hier und jetzt";}
\include "paper16.ly"
melody = \notes \relative c' { \property Staff.instrument = "church organ"
 \time 4/4; \key G;
 r2 r4 d | g [d8 d] [g d] g a~a r8 r2 a4 | a [d,8 d] [a' d,] a' b~b r8 r4 r2
 \bar "||";
}
texta = \lyrics {Die Zeit zu beg -- gin -- nen ist jetzt. \skip4;
Der Ort f�r den An -- fang ist hier. \skip4;
}

\score {
  \simultaneous {
     \addlyrics
     \context Staff \melody
     \context Lyrics \texta
  }
  \midi  { \tempo 4 = 180;}
  \paper { indent = 0.0; linewidth = 11.5 \cm; }
}
\end{mudela}

I have checked the documentation, the FAQ and the archive of this mailing 
list for this problem. In case I missed something, a pointer to the 
explanation would be nice.

The system I use is based on SuSE Linux 6.4 (if it matters) and lilypond
1.2.17 (compiled by myself).

Thank you in advance.

Thomas
