離離原上草，

The lush grasslands on the hill;

一歲一枯榮

witness yearly flourishing and withering they fade and grow.

野火燒不盡，

Wild fire tries to perish them but to no avail;

春風吹又生。

they overgrow again when spring winds blow.

遠芳侵古道，

Their fragrance fills up the ancient way,

晴翠接荒城。

verdure extends to the deserted town.

又送王孫去，

To bid adieu to my friend who is leaving away;

萋萋滿別情。

the wrench occupies my heart deep down. 

PS  I am inspired to translate this famous poem because of a deeply moving perfomance displayed in the video attached below:
