Accourding to the original text (in Portuguese), it's 'is you', not 'are you'.

This was not written by a native speaker - we don't say "shine of my life" - we say "light of my life". I think someone should send a note to the requester asking her to submit her text in her own language.

This requester has submitted two texts in English, both with more or less the same meaning, and both in flawed English. I've sent her a request asking her to submit them in her own language (Portuguese).

Aha - she has submitted it in Portuguese - thanks, Casper. In that case, her two requests in English should be removed. Can you do that, jp?

I've removed the 2 other requests. Sorry I hadn't read you wanted to keep the portuguese one.

Yep tattoo is boring, I will add this in the warnings one day.

Oops - sorry, jp - this one and the other English one are the ones I wanted removed, because the English is wrong. Maybe we could replace this one with the Portuguese if someone can remember what it was, and put that as the source language.

jp, do we have a record of the original Portuguese text here? If I were to edit the English to something that's more correct, I'd have to guess at the meaning. I would say:

My only star, you are the light of my life, Mom.
