vive liber= live free and verus es= be true

well, i guess it could be better if you already have a meaningful sentence you want to tat and then have it translated, instead of someone else telling you what to write on your skin  lol

anyway the first thing that came in to my mind is this sentece:

in girum imus nocte et consumimur igni

it's a palindrome (and i think this is a good idea for a tatoo); it's not proper classical latin, more a late, almost medieval one, and the translation is something like "we wander at night and we are consumed/burned by fire"

some useful links to check here:

^Why the fuck would I ever get that tatood on myself? It makes no fucking sense whatsoever, do not put your shit hole of a personal opinion over my opinion, thanks you, also if anyone is interested I changed what I wanted to free will and already have the translation. Thank you to the one girl who attempted to help, and I'm glad to see this site is still full of kiddies with too much time on their hands

Why do people post sayings in languages they either can't speak and/or read? Is it so it can be something secret? That's the only good reason I can think of. But yet people with tattoos love telling people the story around their tats....

Whooooooa cowboy...calm down just a tiny bit.  I would suggest being a little friendlier to the group of people you are asking to translate something you want to get tattooed on your body, but it's your call.

that's fucking beautiful.
and the fact that it's a palindrome makes it all the better.

i'm sorry mate, i should read more carefully your request, i thought you were looking for suggestions
my fault

anyway, i try to mend it confirming what had been told you by SteezeAlex
live free: can be translated liber vivi or libere vive (live freely)
be true: it can be verus/sincerus es (they mean true / sincere )
so the sentence can be something like liber vive et verus es
other ways to write it: liber et verus es      verus liberque es    liber et aperte vive
