The lines where I have only 1 Word, that means there isn't "bw:|gloss:"

Corrected alignment for bw: string (your test data didn't include lines that fail to have a + after bw

, this should correct for revised format:

Code:

awk '/;;WORD/ {printf "%s%s", t++?"\n":"", $2 }
/ lex:/ {
    sub(/^.*bw:[+]*/,"")
    gsub("/[^+]*[+]", "_+")
    sub("/[^+]*$","")
    printf "%s", OFS $0 }
END { printf "\n" }' infile
