Why Do You Weep Dear Willow?

[Verse 1]
I see a weeping willow
It seems to hide its face
But it is only shielding
My mother's resting place

[Chorus]
Why do you weep dear willow?
Why do your branches hang low?
Could it be you know my secret?
That other trees don't know

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
When I was young my mother
Her love was there for me
I returned to find her sleeping
Beneath that willow tree

[Chorus]
Why do you weep dear willow?
Why do your branches hang low?
Could it be you know my secret?
That other trees don't know

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I'll join you as you're weeping
Your sorrow now I see
I know that there's a country
Where mother waits for me

[Chorus]
Why do you weep dear willow?
Why do your branches hang low?
Could it be you know my secret?
That othеr trees don't know
