I am assuming that this text paragraph is already existing in the page?
something like:
<P> here is some text with a <span id="special">special</span>  
linkable word in it.</P>

if so, then it is rather simple:

Element e = Document.get().getElementById("special");
if(e!=null){
        Label l = new Label.wrap(e);
        l.addClickListener(new ClickListener(){/*implementation here*/});
}

And you are on your way!

You might want to keep a reference to the label just in case you need  
to remove it from DOM before the page unloads.

You could also use the method getElementsByTagName() to find all spans  
in a particular Paragraph if you wanted several linkable words.
