"Bury Me Beneath the Willow" is a traditional ballad folk song, listed as number 410 in the Roud Folk Song Index.[1] It is also known as "Bury Me Beneath the Weeping Willow",[1] "The Weeping Willow",[1] "The Willow Tree"[1] and "Under the Willow Tree".[2] Its author is unknown.[3]
The first citation to the song[3] appears in Henry Marvin Belden's 1909 compilation Ballads and Songs Collected by the Missouri Folk-Lore Society as "Under the Willow Tree".[2]
The song's lyrics relate that the singer's lover has left her (in some descriptions just prior to their wedding). She asks that she be buried beneath the willow tree, in the hopes that her lover will still think of her.[3][2]
