>From the manual:

‘\with-url’ URL (string) ARG (markup)

     Add a link to URL URL around ARG.  This only works in the PDF
     backend.

          \markup {
            \with-url #"https://lilypond.org/"; {
              LilyPond ... \italic {
                music notation for everyone
              }
            }
          }
