Would like help with Tattoo wording: "forever in my arms"

Question

I have tried to translate "Forever in my arms" and came up with "Semper in Armes" would this be correct?

Answer 1

To make your sentence grammatical, you would need to make it in armis, not armes.

But these might not be the kind of arms you're thinking of. Arma are arms in the sense of weapons, like the right to bear arms. It's the ancestor of the English armament and army.

If you are instead referring to a part of the body, you would use the word complexus ("embrace") instead, so:

Semper in complexu

Answer 2

bear in mind that the latin for arms, as in the human limbs called arms, is bracchia, singular bracchium. but i agree with cmw that the sense is better captured with ‘embrace.’
