Yes, \marginpar doesn't work inside nested box arrangements like music
with lyrics. The easiest way to place a verse number into the page margin
would be to treat the number like a syllable and to attach it to a
"virtual" note that stands out to the left of the system, like this:
\setlyrics1{1 a b c d}
\assignlyrics11
\startpiece
\znotes\loffset6\lyr\en
\NOtes\qa{gggg}\en
\endpiece
(This example works as intended only as of musixlyr version 2.1b.)
It will be somewhat more complicated if the number shall be horizontally
aligned with other margin elements, like numbers of verses printed
blockwise below the music; but it should be feasible, too.
Best regards,
Rainer
