You have opened a Cygwin command line interface.
The Cygwin Lilypond installation should (as far as I know) let
you click on your source and then it will translate it.
So with your favourite program-editor (worst case: wordpad) create
a file called "mytune-number-one.ly" or something ending on .ly
containing e.g.
<<
{
c' c' g' g' a' a' g'2
f'4 f' e' e' d' d' c'2
\bar "|."
}
\addlyrics { do do sol sol la la sol
fa fa mi mi re re do
}
>>
and click on it from the MS-filebrowser.
I am not sure I should help you like this, because I do not use
Lilypond on Microsoft and therefore I actually just tell you what
I would try first.
However, try this - and return if you still are in doubt.
There should be better editors than wordpad.
