Well, it returns:

atest-14.ly:757:16: error: unknown escaped string: `\Bkey'

                \Bkey
atest-14.ly:757:16: error: syntax error, unexpected STRING

                \Bkey
atest-14.ly:729:8: error: errors found, ignoring music expression

        <<
error: failed files: "atest-14.ly"

and after commenting \Bkey :

atest-14.ly:739:25: warning: trying to use \partial after the start of a piece
                
                         \partial 4. c'4.^\markup {Sjung.........}


That's tedious. Please make sure to post a compiling file/snippet
containing the used version.


However, you could try:

\version "2.14.2"

\score {
        <<

        \new Staff

        \relative c' {
                \time 4/4
                r2 r8
                 <<
                 \new Voice = "melody" {
                         \autoBeamOff
                         c'4.^\markup {Sjung.........}

                 }
