I hope you mean your Cygwin home directory!

No, but with your lilypond installation. Do you get any warnings when
you start the cygwin shell?

What does the command
printenv TEXMF
return?

Do you, by chance, have TeX Live or any other TeX installation in
Windows? I think that's the only situation I have seen where you could
get these problems.

What happens if you run the command
source /etc/profile.d/lilypond-profile.sh
and then try the lilypond-book command.
