A rhymed translation that nevertheless tries to stick close to the original, also using parts of the translations of Bernard Pares, I. Henry Harrison, C. Fillingham Coxwell and W.R.S. Ralston.

To deepest, thickest forest, flying,
There came from distant clime an eagle and his spouse.
Here in the thickest depths they thought to house...

There, see that lofty oak, wide-spreading.
In its top branches we shall build our nest.

I'll venture to suggest:
This ancient tree is hardly fitted for a dwelling;
The roots are neatly rotted through,
And may soon fall; there's just no telling.

What counsel from a hole have eagles need of learning?
And from a mole! Does anyone deny
The eagle eye
To be discerning?

Exactly! How comes it that Moles would dare to mix
In Kingly matters?

So, on the Mole not wasting further words,
He quickly set to work, that scornful King of Birds!...

From close against the sky, his hunting done,
With a rich breakfast for his brood, returned the father...

Wretched soul! For his pride,
Fate has punished him most terribly.

If you had not despised my standing,
you might've recalled
when landing
That in the earth I make my hole,
And thus so near the roots must be,
That none can better know what health is in the tree.

Mind, and despise not any one's advice,
Before you've looked it over twice.
