"Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" is a #folkSong written by American singer-songwriter #PeteSeeger in 1955. Inspired lyrically by the traditional #Cossack folk song "Koloda-Duda", Seeger borrowed an Irish melody for the music, and published the first three verses in #SingOut magazine. Additional verses were added in May 1960 by #JoeHickerson, who turned it into a circular song. Its rhetorical "where?".
