César Cui was a Russian composer from French and Lithuanian descent who set many poems to music, in Russian, German and French. This poem by Sully Prudhomme has also been set to music by Gabriel Fauré and Alain Jacques. Literal translation (AJ):

Here on earth all the lilacs die (shed their leaves), All the songs of the birds are short; I dream of summers that remain Forever.

Here on earth lips touch lightly Without leaving a trace of their velvet; I dream of kisses that remain Forever!

Here on earth all people cry Their friendships or their loves; I dream of couples that remain Forever!
