"If You See Her, Say Hello" is a song by Bob Dylan in D Major written for Voice, Guitar and Keyboards, released on his 15th studio album "Blood on the Tracks" in 1975 and its subsequent remaster in 2003. 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".
