I don't think so. IIRC the original poster didn't want to type the
text twice, once with and once without hyphen.
In addition I know some cases of German lyrics where hyphenation for
lyrics isn't the same as hyphenation for typesetting text. Therefore
I wrote about those hyphenation points which should be *considered*
for typesetting the music.
