Default No lyrics or txt found in a midi file

Playing a midi file whit Kanto Player i see text of song.
Searching in Notation Composer 3 i am unable to find lyrics in any instruments pentagram.
With an old software (PSRUTI) i am allerted that no [start lyrics] is found.
I believe that midi file is incomplete.
Can i perform a correction of midi file? and how?

Thank you for sending the midi file. This midi file indeed does not contain any lyrics. Lyrics need to be added.
Musician and Composer have a feature for adding lyrics to a song using the copy/paste command. The procedure is explained in detail in the manual and in the Lyrics 2 video see here.
After lyrics is added, the exported midi file then will contain the lyrics and chords. When transfering this exported midi file with a USB stick to a keyboard, many keyboards will display the lyrics on the screen when the song is playing. Those which support the Yamaha XF chord format will display the chords, too.
