If you want to extract information from .midi files into
.ly files, to be processed by Lilypond, you should use
the program midi2ly which is included in the Lilypond
distribution. This should be clear from the documentation
(is it included in the RPM or whatever you installed from?
Otherwise you can find the manual for 1.2.17 at
http://www.gnu.org/software/lilypond/).

Notice, though, that you probably won't get the nice 
result that you expected, both since MIDI files don't 
contain all the necessary information to be able to 
produce nice printable scores but also since midi2ly 
is a fairly primitive program.
