No, but a new work based on a PD song can be protected by copyright. A new translation, setting, arrangement, etc may be copyrightable. A common example would be the traditional Shaker song "Simple Gifts," which is in the public domain, and Aaron Copland's popular orchestral setting "Variations on a Shaker Melody," which is protected by copyright.
melody is the words to a song edit: Melody is the Main part going on in a song, its the part that you would hum even though there may be other parts going on, it is not always the words of a song, in classical music there is seldom words but always a melody in a guitar solo the guitar is the melody and the part one would hum, even though there are bass guitars/ drums probably going on and possibly a guitar rhythym.

A melody is a tune, voice, or repetitive line which tends to be a combination of pitch and rhythm. A main melody is the most used or strongest sounding melody in the song.

The melody of a song is the main tune or series of notes that you hear. It is the part of the music that you can sing or hum along to.

There is no such thing as a certain "part" of the violin that produces a melody. The melody of a song can be played by any instrument- the violin, the viola, the cello, the double bass, the winds, or even the occasional percussion. The Melody of a song is the main part of a song. Usually, if referring to JUST THE VIOLINS, the 1st Violins normally play the melody, and the 2nd Violins usually play the Harmony.

Another word for the tune of a song is "melody." The melody refers to the sequence of musical notes that are perceived as a single entity, often serving as the main theme of the song. It is distinct from harmony and rhythm, which contribute to the overall musical composition.
