Lilypond: Parenthesize in repeat barline

Question

I would like if it is possible to print parenthesis in the ":" part of a repeat barline in Lilypond. The aim is to provide the same score for three different lyrics, one of them with a repetition, while the rest don't include this repeat.

It will be very difficult, not impossible. Could you find some other way of notating it? For example a *segno* with a note that it is only to be followed the first time? In any case, putting a *segno* in brackets is somewhat more straightforward. — Ole V.V., Feb 18 '21 at 23:06
