ChatGPT's idiomatic translation of the poem:

Yu Xin’s was a life of utter desolation; in old age, his poems and rhapsodies stirred the riverlands.

[acchow]

Opus:

No life ran more bleak and desolate than Yu Xin's —

yet in his twilight years, his verses stirred the rivers and the passes.

[zahlman]

  Yu Xin's past was exquisitely tragic
  Ages passed; now his works betray magic

[dash2]

I think the feminine rhyme sounds unintentionally comic.

[Eufrat]

I guess that works, it is always difficult to capture the cultural and linguistic melancholy of such poetry.
