Remarks about the translation
Jag vill göra en tatuering med detta ordspråket men vet inte om det är exakt rätt. Så som jag tror står där "min familj och mina vänner ger mig ljuset i livet". Skulle gärna vilja veta om det är rätt.

Bridge for you, Pia:

"Family and best friends are the light of my life"

Literally "light in my life", but I don't know if we can say it in this way in English.
Lilly, could you take your stand here, please?

There's a note from the requester, telling she thinks this is: "My family and my friends are giving me the light of life"

And the requester is right. I translated litterally, but the meaning is just like the requester suggested.

I guess more than one version could be acceptable keeping the meaning.

"Family and (best) friends are the light of my life"

"My family and friends give light/bring the light into my life"
