Hi,

how about:

\version "2.18.2"

atempo = #(make-dynamic-script (markup #:normal-text #:italic "atempo"))

\relative f, {
  \clef "bass"
  \time 3/4
  \slurUp
  %% To avoid too short Hairpin:
  \once \override Hairpin.minimum-length = 12  %% adjust the value
  %% Optional:
  %\once \override DynamicText.self-alignment-X = #-0.5 %% adjust the value
  bes2.(\atempo \< |
  ees,2.\mf \> |
  bes'2. \< |
  \once\numericTimeSignature\time 4/4
  c2. \! )
  \slurNeutral
}

Cheers,
  Harm
