Paul, A good scan through the manuals would be the best place to start in order to figure out how to place a second verse in there.
My quick thought (I've never actually done this before) would be to have the second verse in its own section as follows: texttwo = \lyricmode { Here are some more words for the se -- cond verse } And then add the following line to the \score section below the similar line: \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \texttwo If you do that now, the words will appear right at the beginning of the song, but there is a way (look it up -- I haven't figured that out yet) to make these words delay till measure 18. You might also want to add \markup^ {D.S.} at the end, and a \segno at bar 18. And I'm thinking that you sing the beginning as a refrain at the end, right? I wouldn't mind a copy of your finished code. Good luck! :-) Blessings, Gordon+ -- Fr.
