Re: How to move text inside an empty bar?

Please remember to "replay-all" to any answer, so that others may also help 
with suggestions.

This would appear to do what you want:

{
 \once \override TextScript.extra-offset = #'( 0 . -4.5 )
 <>^\markup {
   \column {
     { \underline \fontsize #-2 " D : C : Menuetto" }
     { \raise #0.5 \italic \fontsize #-2 "sino al Fine" }
   }
 }
 s1
 \bar "|"
}

Note that <> is an empty chord, providing the markup with something to 
attach to.

Thank you for answering.

Moving the upper one downwards and the down one upwards so the text falls 
over the notation lines.

Excuses for my limited English
