Willow Weep for Me

Willow, weep for me, weeping willow tree

Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to the sea

Listen, listen to my plea

Listen, willow, and weep for me

Gone, my lover's dream, lovely summer dream

Gone and left me here to cry my tears into the stream

I am so sad, sad as I can be

Hear me, willow, and weep for me

Whisper to the wind and say that love has sinned

And left my heart a-breaking, and a-making a moan

Murmur to the night to hide her starry light

So none will find me sighing and crying all alone

Oh, weeping willow tree, weep in sympathy

Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me

When the shadows fall

Bend, oh willow, and weep for me

Hear me, willow, and weep for me
