English to Spanish Art/Literary Linguistics Examples: phrases

Basically, I'm going to get a tattoo with "I loved you half to death" included in it.
I've asked a couple of people and keep getting different answers, and need someone to clarify what the right answer is because obviously it's going to be permanent!
Answers I've received so far include;

Te ame a media a la muerte.
Me encantó que media hasta la muerte.
Le ame mitad a la muerte.

Are any of these actually right?
I'm looking for the literal translation/the one that makes the most sense.

Thank you!
