I'm revising my answer a little... I still think "you" refers to god, while "it" refers to our existence/consciousness/self-awareness/("I think therefore I am").
It makes sense, therefore, when the poet asks if the answer is the question itself, with the mystery of existence/consciousness being both the question that intrigues us (the mystery of life and where we came from) yet at the same time serving as the "answer" that gives creation and the supposed randomness of the universe sense and meaning in the first place.

PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
