Serpent Crown

Please Translate this line from William Shakespear!?
Old english:
“Tis given out that sleeping in my orchard,
A serpent stung me… But know,
noble youth,
The serpent that did sting the father’s crown!”
I need translated to MODERN english plzz
This is said by the ghost of Hamlet’s father.
“When I was out sleeping in my orchard,
A serpent bit me…
But know this, my son,
The serpent that stung your father’s life
Now wears his crown.”
The first part refers to a literal serpent, as in a snake. The serpent in the second stanza refers to the Hamlet’s now step father, King Claudius.
