[00:00.15]Go To The Limits of Your Longing
[00:02.73]by Rainer Maria Rilke
[00:05.24]God speaks to each of us as he makes us,
[00:15.52]then walks with us silently out of the night.
[00:19.55]These are the words we dimly hear:
[00:24.09]You, sent out beyond your recall,
[00:30.15]go to the limits of your longing.
[00:33.25]Embody me.
[00:35.39]Flare up like flame
[00:38.75]and make big shadows I can move in.
[00:41.30]Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
[00:47.46]Just keep going. No feeling is final.
[00:52.66]Don’t let yourself lose me.
[00:55.97]Nearby is the country they call life.
[01:00.71]You will know it by its seriousness.
[01:04.37]Give me your hand.
