Appreciation of the poem 'Blowing in the Wind'

‘Blowing in the Wind’ is one of the most famous songs written and sung by the Nobel Laureate Bob Dylan. Bob Dylan was a crusader for world peace. He despised the warring policy of his country. He vehemently protested against America’s tyranny in the Vietnam War. He pens his feelings in the heart-touching song ‘Blowing in the Wind’. He strummed this song wherever he sang and since then it has become the most popular and powerful protest song against war.

The song comprises three stanzas. Each stanza begins with a rhetorical question that interrogates the purpose of the war. The next lines state the futility of the war. The concluding two lines of each stanza bear the title as a refrain. The refrain is the solution Man can find himself:

   “The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind  

     The answer is blowin' in the wind”.

All through the song Dylan asks the dictators of Man that how many wars does a man need to wage before he can realize his true identity. How many peace treaties has Man to sign before the violence in the wars will cease. Dylan alludes the Biblical reference to Noah sending a pair of doves, after the deluge, to find a land where there is peace and is fit to be habituated.

Dylan creates a striking antithesis through the metaphor of ‘doves’ and ‘cannon balls’. He explicitly states the desperate condition of Man as he pretends not to hear the agonies of the war-victims, their pleas and cries, their sorrows and destitute. Dylan urges each of us to not to hunt for the answer but just to listen empathetically as the answer is all round us blowing in the wind.
