SONG TO LYRICS · MUSIC TRANSCRIPTION

Get the words from your song.

Upload a finished track—even with the beat still in it—and turn the vocals into editable, timed lyrics. Download the text or captions, or translate the words for listeners in another language. You do not have to make a video.

You see the price before transcription. After paying once for this song’s timed lyrics, corrections, translations, and downloads are free.

TXT · SRT · OPTIONAL TRANSLATION
01

Start with the whole song

No isolated vocal needed. The transcription service reads lyrics from the uploaded mix and returns timed words as a first draft.

02

Make the words right

Play the song and correct names, slang, or unclear lines. Keeping the same word count preserves each word’s timing; adding words redistributes timing inside that line.

03

Download or translate

Take a plain-text lyric sheet or a timed SRT file. If you want an international version, translate the corrected lyrics and review each sentence before downloading.

HEAR THE SOURCE

A real song, not an isolated voice

This short example contains both the singing and the music. Try the audio while looking at the timed words above. Your own song can start the same way.

Song-to-lyrics questions

Can I turn a song with instruments into lyrics?

Yes. Upload the finished song with vocals and music together. You do not need to separate the vocal or type a lyric sheet first. Listen to the result and correct names, slang, layered vocals, or other words the transcription missed.

Can I download lyrics without making a video?

Yes. Download plain-text lyrics or a timed SRT captions file. The video step is optional and lives in the separate Lyric Video Maker.

Can I translate the song lyrics?

Yes. After reviewing the original words, optionally choose a target language and edit the sentence-timed translation. Download the translated text or SRT. Review idioms, poetic lines, and slang because automatic translation can change their meaning.

What does song-to-lyrics transcription cost?

The current rate is 0.5 paid credits per started minute of audio. You see the exact credit quote after choosing your file, before starting transcription. Trial-grant credits cannot cover this tool. Editing, translation, and downloading the saved timed lyrics do not charge another transcription fee.

Can I make a lyric video later?

Yes. The timed original lyrics are saved to My Library. Open the project in the Lyric Video Maker and select the original audio file again. You can choose artwork and render video without paying for transcription of that project twice.
