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.
The direction of melody is simply called it's motion.
