"If You See Her, Say Hello" is a song by Bob Dylan released on his 15th studio album Blood on the Tracks in 1975. An alternative version is on The Bootleg Series Volumes 1–3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961–1991.
The song describes an anonymous lost love, who no longer loves the persona after they had "a falling out". Although the persona clearly feels wounded by the break up: "Our separation, It pierced me to the heart", he appears not to resent the anonymous character, declaring "Oh, whatever makes her happy, I won't stand in the way"
There is also a version in Italian by Francesco De Gregori, called Non Dirle Che Non E' Cosi'
Jeff Buckley covered the song in a live performance on his album Live at Sin-é.
It is mentioned by David Duchovny's character Hank at the end of episode five of the Showtime series Californication.
An interview with Ricky Gervais mentioned the song as a favourite, but it was incorrectly transcribed as "If You See A Sailor".
The Brazilian singer Renato Russo made a cover for this song but due to his homosexual preference changed the title and lyrics to "If you see HIM, say hello".
