 You can use the `markup' scheme macro to build markups:

 trflatstart = \notes{
     \trstyle
     \override TextSpanner #'edge-text =
     #(cons (markup #:musicglyph "scripts-trill"
                    #:raise 0.8 #:flat)
            "")
 }

 It makes the translation from LilyPond syntax to scheme syntax quite
 straight-forward. Its documentation is here:
