Life by Juan Ramon Jimenez

What I used to regard as a glory shut in my face,
was a door, opening
toward this clarity:
. . . . . . .Country without a name:

Nothing can destroy it,this road
of doors, opening, one after another,
always toward reality:
. . . . . . .Life without calculation!

translated by James Wright
