Did this for a lark a while ago:
今日之东，明日之西，青山叠叠，绿水悠悠，走不尽楚峡秦关，填不满心潭欲壑，力兮项羽，智兮曹操，乌江赤壁空烦恼，忙什么，请君静坐片时，把寸心想后思前，得安闲处且安闲，莫放春秋佳日过
这条路来，那条路去，风尘扰扰，驿站迢迢，带不去白璧黄金，留不住朱颜皓齿，富若石崇，贵若杨素，绿珠红拂终成梦，恨怎的，�... See more Did this for a lark a while ago:

这条路来，那条路去，风尘扰扰，驿站迢迢，带不去白璧黄金，留不住朱颜皓齿，富若石崇，贵若杨素，绿珠红拂终成梦，恨怎的，劝汝解下数文，沽一壶猜三度四，遇畅饮时须畅谈，最难风雨故人来
Here today,
Gone tomorrrow.
Beyond hills, mountains black range;
Over currents, waters emerald flow.
Gorges of Chu, passes of Qin, now no man's land;
Morass of mind, abyss of desire, mere mortal's curse.
Herculean Rebel Xiang,
Machiavellian General Cao -
Wars of old, much ado.
Sweat not.
Rest awhile, traveler,
Ponder ahead, and back.
Idle when idling is easy -
Waste no sunshine, spring or fall.
East onward,
West, behind.
Deary is thy journey;
Futile, thy quest.
Jade jaded, gold golden, wealth lasts but one life;
Rogue red, skin silky, beauty fades mighty fast.
Mammon is false;
Venus, loose -
Diamonds and dames, done and gone.
Vex not.
Fork over a few coppers,
A table, two wines, three vessels.
Drink when drinking is fun -
Friends catch up, storm or not. ▲ Collapse

yongmei兄大作沉雄有力，韵味深长，却勾得在下手痒。虽然"yongmei译作在上头",还是要不避浅陋地弄了一个新译本。
后来一想，还是不献丑了吧：）抱歉！

Today to the east
Tomorrow the west
Over ranges of hills green
And spans of waters deep
Gorges of Chu, passes of Qin
Long is the dreary journey
Hollows of mind, abysses of want
Man's curse for eternity
Heroic as Xiang, clever as Cao,
All come to their futile ends.
Hey what's the rush?
Just rest awhile
And ponder it well
Relax when leisure is there
Seize every moment of joy
No matter spring or fall
This way I've come
That, he's gone
Through dust of this world
And distance of all space
Milky jade, glittery gold
Illusions upon death's door
Rosy cheeks, skin of snow
Battered up in the sands of time
Rich as Shi, noble as Yang
Their fragrant dreams always wake.
So why the regret?
Spare a few coppers
Finger-guess over a wine
Get drunk when time is right
For old friends have come to party
Despite wind or rain ▲ Collapse
