Motivation edit
Essentially the opposite of has melody (P1625), used to link from a musical work to the written work(s) used as its lyrics. Would be used for simple musical settings of texts, but there may be other uses. This concept is currently handled in most cases by based on (P144), which is also used as a parallel connection alongside has melody (P1625). Beleg Tâl (talk) 19:44, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
