Saluton! I am not very far along in my Esperanto studies, but I love the language and am currently trying to increase my active vocabulary. I've been trying to write all notes to myself in Esperanto, and I came across one word which I don't think translated as I wanted in the vortaro on this site.
The vortaro translated "lyric" as "teksto," but I feel as though it probably means lyric in the traditional sense of the word, rather than the modern "words to songs" meaning that it has taken on. I came up with "kantovortoj" on my own, and it sounds right to me, but I was wondering if perhaps there is already a standardized form for this concept.
Thank you in advance for your time.

'Teksto' is fine for 'lyrics'. One of the definitions that ReVo gives for 'teksto' is:
BTW, I've added 'lyrics' (with an s) to the Lernu dictionary. Just translated it as 'teksto'. I also made this change:
lyric = (poetry) liriko; teksto
ReVo:a) Akompanaj vortoj por muziko aŭ desegnaĵojYour suggestion 'kantovortoj' is good, too. For the poetical sense of 'lyric', there's the word 'liriko'.

I've never heard of "lirikoj". Every experienced Esperantist I know says "teksto". You could say "kanto-teksto" if you wanted to be extra clear, but I think in most cases it would be obvious in context (Kiu havas la tekston de tiu kanto? Mi amas la tekston de tiu kanto! etc.)
