You've one of the environment variables LANG, LC_ALL, or LC_MESSAGES
set to de (or de_DE or something similar).  Since LilyPond involves many
different programs, some of them may be localized, others not.

Unset all mentioned environment variables or just set LANG and LC_ALL
to C to get only english messages.
