Your question's classic, it's not easy to define a classic literature. In my opinion, it's what some exceptional literary men/women of letters've contributed in meaningful words/texts to mankind to last till the end of time. One more thing, it's definitely the treasure of the world, not for those reading a particular language.

classic literature is literature that is considered to outlast time
