Hello, I believe to have encountered a bug in LilyPond. When one adds additional lyrics multiple times on the same line of the resulting sheet music using alignBelowContext, the alignment of the first instance is shifted down. (It is shifted below the second instance.) If this is attempted more than twice on a line, these extra shifts stack up. When the two instances are not on the same line in the resulting sheet music, this problem does not occur. (This can be observed by removing the 'landscape option in the attached file.)
The example I attached is basically taken from the official documentation [1], with the last two bars repeated. Best regards Benedikt Wilde [1]: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/techniques-specific-to-lyrics#lyrics-and-repeats
