Most wonderful when /
they scatter --- /
The cherry blossoms. /
In this floating world, /
does anything endure?

The love duet "Oui c'est toi que j'aime" from Gounod's Faust
From Wikipedia:
As dawn approaches, Faust sees a vision of Marguerite and calls for her. Méphistophélès helps Faust enter the prison where Marguerite is being held for killing her child. They sing a love duet (Oui, c'est toi que j'aime).
