"Bear a charmed life" = trải qua một cuộc đời được phù phép -> cụm từ này nghĩa là sống dường như có phép màu phù hộ.

Ví dụ
To the end, Riley continued to bear a charmed life. In one of his last combats (cuộc chiến, trận đánh), he and his section (tiểu đội) succeeded in clearing a wood of enemy troops (quân thù) where a battalion (nhóm lớn) of paratroopers (lính nhảy dù) had failed.

Those who gently whispered about the proverbial (ai cũng biết) luck of the Irish would have hit upon a fraction (phần) of the truth, for though the Eire goal did, at times, seem to bear a charmed life in the latter stages of the afternoon, the solid (đáng tin cậy, có cơ sở) fact remains that England had the ball at their command for four-fifths of the second half and yet could not turn their position to account.

The gentle-spoken Swiss art maven did not always bear a charmed life. Hauser was born in 1939, three weeks before the Second World War broke out (xảy ra). Her mother was a professional seamstress (cô thợ may), while her father was serving in the army as a driver to high-ranking (cấp bậc cao) officials. Hauser’s entrance into the world was fraught, surviving a threatening case of pneumonia (viêm phổi) at six months old during a time before antibiotics (thuốc kháng sinh) and penicillin existed.
