translated from Spanish by W.S. Merwin

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the
questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a
very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given
you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live
everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will find them gradually,
without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer.
~Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Every grace I need has already been given me. Oh, lead me to the Beyond
