No, there's no pango, but Qt is as good as pango. I feel a solution.

Please make a try: In lilyexport.cpp near line  1594 is a 
function "writeLyrics". At the and is:

  s.replace(whiteSpaces_, "_");
  removeExceptsFromString(&s, true);
  NResource::germanUmlautsToTeX(&s);
  out_ << s << ' '; 

Change this to:

  s.replace(whiteSpaces_, "_");
  removeExceptsFromString(&s, true);
  /* NResource::germanUmlautsToTeX(&s); */
  out_ << s.utf8() << ' '; 

If this doesn't help to:

  s.replace(whiteSpaces_, "_");
  removeExceptsFromString(&s, true);
  /* NResource::germanUmlautsToTeX(&s); */
  out_ << s.latin1() << ' '; 

And if this doesn't help:

  s.replace(whiteSpaces_, "_");
  removeExceptsFromString(&s, true);
  /* NResource::germanUmlautsToTeX(&s); */
  out_ << s.unicode() << ' ';
