Can't get midi2ly to work.

[Bob Coppedge]

I've tried to get this to work, and I get nothing but error messages.

I created a file with notepad with the instruction midi2ly song1.mid.

I can't seem to get anything but error messages.  I saved the text file 
as "Midi.ly" and dropped it onto the icon. This is what the log shows:

# -*-compilation-*-
Changing working directory to `C:/Documents and Settings/Owner/Desktop'
Processing `C:/Documents and Settings/Owner/Desktop/Midi.ly'
Parsing...
C:/Documents and Settings/Owner/Desktop/Midi.ly:1:4: error: syntax error, 
unexpected DIGIT, expecting '='
midi
    2ly song1.mid
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.
