my suggestion is that don't translate them into english. you will end up with nothing. everything is lost except for the literal meanings.

Answer

if you are really interested in chinese poetry, connect me. i am a big fan of portey.

Answer

Couldn't agree more with Eric. If one really wants to appreciate the poetry, he/she has to learn Chinese. 
There are translations of poetry, but no word by word translation. Translating of Chinese peotry are just ruining them.
